Мелатонин: перспективы применения при мужском бесплодии

   В статье изучена возможная роль мелатонина в качестве регулятора функции яичек. Показаны результаты доклинических исследований, посвященных изучению влияния мелатонина на мужскую фертильность при воздействии различных повреждающих факторов. Учитывая результаты доклинических исследований, можно сделать предположение о высокой эффективности мелатонина в качестве антиоксиданта при заболеваниях мужской половой системы, однако требуется проведение масштабных клинических исследований для включения данного препарата в схемы лечения мужского бесплодия.
