espermatozoides. Os anticorpos antiespermatozoides exercem efeitos
heterogêneos sobre a capacidade dos espermatozoides para fertilizar.
Técnicas
A análise pode ser realizada no soro, plasma seminal ou diretamente aos
espermatozoides. Os anticorpos indiretos são utilizados no teste de ELISA,
e o uso de Immunobeads de maneira direta detectam a presença de
imunoglobulinas (IgA e IgG) na cabeça e parte proximal da cauda dos
espermatozoides considerando um possível fator de infertilidade.
Indicações
• Diagnóstico de doenças de origem imunológica, presença isolada de
astenospermia ou aglutinação de espermatozoides;
• Teste pós-coito negativo;
• Infertilidade conjugal sem causa aparente;
• Fatores de risco para a formação de anticorpos, como trauma, torção,
biópsia, orquite, câncer testicular e vasectomia.
Recomendamos a indicação de ICSI no tratamento de infertilidade
por presença de anticorpos antiespermatozoides como fator principal
da infertilidade.
Outros Testes com Aplicação Prática Menos
Disseminada
Além disso, outros testes estão sendo utilizados no manejo da infertilidade
masculina, mas são ainda muito recentes e com a necessidade de maiores
estudos para uma correta indicação e conduta, por exemplo: dosagens de
creatina quinase e análise de radicais livres de oxigênio (ROS).
Procedimentos para seleção do “melhor” espermatozoide também estão
sendo empregados, como a utilização de ácido hialurônico, testes de
maturação da membrana do espermatozoide, avaliação apoptótica, seleção
de espermatozoides por meios magnéticos, análise morfológica ampliada e, por último, testes mais recentes que detectam a presença de papilomavírus
(HPV) no sêmen.
