Abstract
Giriş: İnfertilite çiftleri ve toplumu birçok açıdan olumsuz etkileyen ve gittikçe yaygınlaşan bir sağlık problemidir. Bu
problemlerin %30-40’ının erkek kaynaklı olduğu tahmin edilmektedir.
Amaç: Farklı derecelerde infertilite problemi olan erkek bireyler ile normal sperm sayısı ve konsantrasyonuna sahip
bireylerde (normozoospermi) doğal öldürücü (Natural Killer: NK) hücre aktivitesinin değişip değişmediğinin belirlenmesi
amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Sperma analizleri sonucu oligozoospermi, şiddetli-oligozoospermi, oligoastenoozospermi, azoospermi
ve idiopatik olduğu belirlenen bireyler ile normozoospermi teşhisi konan bireylerden (n:120) alınan kan numunelerinden
NK hücre aktiviteleri ölçüldü.
Bulgular: Yapılan ölçümler sonucunda normozoospermi grubu en düşük değer (544.46 pg/ml) alırken şiddetli
oligozoospermi grubundan en yüksek değer (1005.90 pg/ml) alınmıştır. NK hücre aktivitesi ise oligozoospermi,
oligoastenozoospermi, azoospermi ve idiyopatik gruplarda sırasıyla 797.60 ± 428.55 pg/ml, 905.34 ± 430.60 pg/ml, 757.66
± 541.16 pg/ml ve 639.44 ± 385.50 pg/ml olarak ölçüldü. Şiddetli oligozoospermi grubu ile diğer gruplar arasında NK
aktivitesi farkı önemli (p<0.05) bulunurken diğer gruplar arasındaki farklar önemli bulunmamıştır (p >0.05).
Sonuç: İnfertilite derecesi şiddetli oligozoospermi olan bireylerde NK hücre aktivitesinin normozoospermi, oligozoospermi,
oligoastenozoospermi, azoospermi ve idiopatik gruplarından daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir.
Introduction: Infertility is a health problem that negatively affects couples and society in many ways and is becoming increasingly common. It is estimated that 30-40% of these problems are caused by men. Aim: It was aimed to determine whether natural killer (Natural Killer: NK) cell activity changes in male individuals with different degrees of infertility problems and in individuals with normal sperm count and concentration (normozoospermia). Materials and methods: NK cell activities were measured from blood samples taken from individuals who were determined to be oligozoospermia, severe-oligozoospermia, oligoastenoozospermia, azoospermia and idiopathic as a result of semen analysis with from individuals diagnosed normozoospermia (n:120). Results: NK cell activity in blood was observed as the lowest in normozoospermia (544.46 pg/ml), but the highest value measured in severe oligozoospermia group (1005.90 pg/ml). On the other hand, NK cell activity was measured 797.60 ± 428.55 pg/ml, 905.34 ± 430.60 pg/ml, 757.66 ± 541.16 pg/ml and 639.44 ± 385.50 pg/ml in oligozoospermia, oligoastenozoospermia, azoospermia and idiopathic groups respectively. While the difference in NK activity between the severe oligozospermia group and the other groups was significant (p<0.05), the differences between the other groups were not significant (p >0.05). Conclusion: It was determined that NK cell activity was higher in individuals with severe oligozoospermia than normozoospermia, oligozoospermia, oligoastenozoospermia, azoospermia and idiopathic individuals.
