Metales pesados, parámetros funcionales de los espermatozoides y su asociación con la infertilidad masculina
Resumen
Introducción. La exposición ambiental a metales pesados, como el As, Al, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Se, Mo, Cd, Sn, Sb, W, Tl, Pb y U induce a efectos perjudiciales en la salud reproductiva, suprimiendo la motilidad de los espermatozoides al alterar el sistema antioxidante espermático. Objetivo. Discutir la exposición a metales pesados y su relación con parámetros funcionales de los espermatozoides asociados a la infertilidad masculina. Metodología. Es un estudio con enfoque cualitativo, de diseño no experimental, transversal y descriptivo. Se emplearon bases de datos como Lens, Scopus, Scielo, PubMed y Elsevier para identificar las publicaciones utilizando palabras claves y operadores booleanos. Resultados. Mediante revisión bibliográfica se logró interpretar los efectos que causan los metales pesados en la salud reproductiva masculina. Conclusión. Se evidencia que la exposición prolongada a ciertos metales pesados altera la función testicular, lo que conduce a una mayor fragmentación del ADN, alteraciones en la morfología, motilidad y concentración del esperma, incrementando así la infertilidad en el varón.
