Title of the Congress : International Symposium on Morphological Sciences
Title of your Abstract : The Effects of Curcumin on Sperm Parameters and Nitric oxide Production in Varicocelized Rats
Destination Country : Turkey
From : Wednesday, September 2, 2015
To : Sunday, September 6, 2015
Abstract(Please copy/paste the abstract send to the congress) : ABSTRACT
Objective: One of the proposed mechanism by which varicocele induces its damage is excessive
release of nitric oxide (NO). Several studies have shown the role of NO in poor sperm quality in
infertile patients with varicocele. Scientific studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of
Curcumin on the sperm parameters. Curcumin as an atoxic antioxidant can reduce production of
NO. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of curcumin on NO level and investigate
if curcumin can improve sperm parameters in varicocelized male rats.
Materials and Methods: Thirsty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups, (V1
and V2 (varicocele), T (treatment), Sh (sham) and C was control). In groups V1, V2, T and Sh,
the left renal vein was partially ligated to induce varicocele. In groups V1 and V2, sperm
parameters and NO level were evaluated 8 and 16 weeks respectively after varicocele induction.
Groups T and Sh received 100 mg/kg Curcumin and placebo respectively, daily for 8weeks after
2 months of induced varicocele. Sperm parameters (count, motility, viability and morphology),
epididymis and testis weight and also NO concentration were measured.
Results: Sperm parameters (count, motility and viability) in groups V1, V2 and Sh were
significantly low in comparison with control and treatment groups. The level of NO was
significantly increased in serum of rats in groups V1 and V2, whereas group T rat serum in
which Curcumin was administered, showed decreased NO levels. The values of the epididymis
and testis weight had no significant changes (P ≤ 0.05) in all groups.
Conclusion:
Administration of Curcumin as a free radical scavenger, can decrease NO level and improve
sperm parameters in varicocelized male rats.

The Congress Reporting Form
How many volunteers were present at the Congress? : more than 427, in oral and posters
Delegates from which countries presented in the congress? : sweeden, switzerland, USA, China, japon, south africa, and...
Were the delegates of any other organizations present in the congress? : No
If yes, please write the names of the organizations in the box :  
What were the responses to your talking points? Were specific questions or concerns raised? : some questions were asked about sperm counting and staining for asessment of viability,that i responsed. for example how much should be the ratio of samples and eosin y, thats s better 1 of eosin and 4 of sample, couse more than this, would kill the sperms.
If you met staff members, please list their full names & positions. : samet pilavoglu(congress Receptionist) - erdogan sendemir and H. Hamdi Celik (congress presidents)
Please inform us if there are any follow up actions we need to talk with the members of the congress : their reception totally was good. but just the food for lunch was a problem that we didnt know wich meat was used in the lunch, and becouse we are muslims , that was a question for us. and the members and waiters in congress was so weak in english language. and just some one that knows turkish language could communicate with them. every hall for presenting was well, juast one hall had no air conditionar and the weather in september was so hot, and standing in that hall was out of our stand.
Your experiences about the travel processes(Providing ticket, accommodation,...) : ticket was got af an agency, and our hotel and accommodation was good and around the university. and also near the ayasofie mosque.
Please give a briefing of your own observations and outcomes of the congress: : It was the first experience for me of taking apart in internatioal congress in out of iran,communication with anatomy scientist and professorswas pleasant and nice for me. and their presentations was so useful for me. we could get a PDF of one professor s book in latest version of him, and we saw the anatomy department of istanbul university. that was a nice experience for me.
and presentions was usefull for me, the newest articles and scientific informations improved my informations.
totally novelity of articles was a motivation for me for next works and articles.
