Abstract

Introduction: This study explains about the effect of Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) supplementation in goat oocyte In Vitro maturation media on Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) levels and 8-Hydroxy-2'-Deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels with the aim of determining the status of balanced intracellular redox status and good oocyte quality. Objective: This laboratory experimental study contained three treatment groups: no ALA (P0), 25 μmol/L ALA supplementation (P1), and 50 μmol/L ALA supplementation (P2). SOD and 8-OHdG levels were measured using the ELISA method. SOD levels in group P0 were 1.41±0.40 pg/mL, group P1 were 2.04±0.50 pg/mL, and group P2 were 3.65±1.20 pg/mL. Data on 8-OHdG levels in the P0 group was 51.17±27.58 pg/mL, the P1 group was 11.21±5.98 pg/mL, and the P2 group was 12.66±6.01 pg/mL. Results: The P1 group could not significantly increase the SOD level of the P0 group (p>0.05), while the P2 group could significantly increase the SOD level of the P0 group (p<0.05). Data on 8-OHdG levels in the P1 and P2 groups decreased significantly when compared to the P0 group (p<0.05). Conclusion: ALA supplementation at a dose of 50 µmol/L in goat oocyte In Vitro maturation media can increase SOD levels and reduce 8-OHdG levels.
