Three cliniclly helthy stllions were injected intrvenously with endotoxin (LPS) from scherichi coli 55:B5 t the dose of.3 µg/kg b.w.; while four stllions were treted with dexmethsone (.9 mg/kg b.w., i.m.) 1 min before the dministrtion of LPS. The dministrtion of the endotoxin elicited significnt (P<.5) decrese in the gel-free semen volume (GFSV), totl spermtozoon motility (TSM), nd spermtozoon concentrtion (SC). As regrds to ech of the morphologicl defects of the spermtozo, the percentge of those with cytoplsmic droplets droplet in distl (form 1), proximl nd typicl position (defects 1-3); til loops single loop (form ), double loop, loop of the end prt of the til, spirlling of the til, nd til looped round the hed (defects -8); two (or more) heds (form 13), nd smll ("dwrf") heds (form 15) were clerly higher in endotoxin treted stllions. The dministrtion of dexmethsone (DX) hd different effect on endotoxin-induced chnges of the semen s qulity. A positive influence of DX ws noticed in certin mcro- nd microscopic chrcteristics of the semen. There were noted smller chnges in TSM, SC, defects 1-3, form 1, nd form 13. Dexmethson hd no influence on GFSV. A negtive influence of the dministrtion of LPS+dexmethsone, in reltion to the stllions treted only with LPS, ws especilly noticed in forms nd 15. This dt suggest tht the dexmethsone does not prevent nd to certin degree enhnces n dverse influence of endotoxin on the semen qulity in stllions. Key words: stllion, endotoxin, dexmethsone, semen qulity. The effect of endotoxin on the reproductive functions of mles of domestic nimls hs been prtly elucidted. In rms (, 8) nd bors (7) exposed to S. typhimurium endotoxin, there ws number of clinicl, endocrinologicl nd seminologicl chnges, including the morphology of spermtozo. Studies in bors showed tht endotoxin induced infiltrtion of polymorphonucler neutrophils (PMN) into the testiculr interstitium nd morphologicl chnges of Leydig cells (9, 3). In stllions, the dministrtion of scherichi coli endotoxin hd negtive influence on the levels of blood serum nd seminl plsm testosterone, qulity of semen, especilly on the sperm motility nd morphology of spermtozo, nd on the concentrtion of seminl plsm lbumin nd ctivity of sprtte minotrnsferse (5, 7, 9). Steroidl nti-inflmmtory drugs re widely used in equine prctice. Dexmethsone is long-cting, synthetic nlogue of hydrocortisone (cortisol) widely used in vrious equine disorders, including llergic, cutneous, circultory, intestinl, nd musculoskeletl diseses (15, 1). Aprt from mny other effects chrcteristic for steroidl nti-inflmmtory drugs, dexmethsone hs n bility to prevent dverse effects of endotoxin on number of body systems in horses nd other nimls (11, 1, 1,, 5). In lipopolyscchride-chllenged swine (19), dexmethsone decresed blood plsm tumour necrosis fctor (by pproximtely %), nd interleukin-, but did not lter interleukin-1 levels. Co-incubtion with 1 µm dexmethsone (this concentrtion gretly exceeds the therpeutic dose of the drug for horses) suppresses the production of TNFα by lipopolyscchride-stimulted equine peritonel mcrophges (18). Dexmethsone lso significntly inhibited TNF production by equine mmmry exudte mcrophges when the gent ws dded one hour before lipopolyscchride dministrtion (17). Dexmethsone tretment hd differentil effects on LPS-induced testiculr inflmmtion nd steroidogenesis inhibition in dult rts (13). There re no such studies concerning stllions. In the previous pper (7), it ws shown tht non-steroidl nti-inflmmtory drug - flunixin meglumine hd positive effect on most semen chrcteristics, which hd been chnged under the influence of endotoxin. The im of this study ws to determine the effects of dexmethsone on the chnges of semen qulity in stllions induced by endotoxin dministrtion.
2 58 Mteril nd Methods Animls. Seven cliniclly helthy stllions (Polish Primitive Horses) were investigted during the mting seson (April-July). The stllions were divided into two groups: (three stllions ged 8-1 yers, nd weighing 37- kg nd +DX (four stllions ged -1 yers nd weighing 8- kg). Tretment with endotoxin nd dexmethson. Lipopolyscchride (LPS) from scherichi coli (serotype 55:B5; Sigm Chemicl Co.) dissolved in 5 ml of pyrogenic physiologicl sline solution ws infused (i.v.) t the dose of.3 µg/kg b.w. The experimentl stllions (group +DX) received intrmusculrly single dose (.9 mg/kg b.w.) of dexmethsone in the form of preprtion Dexfort (Intervet, Hollnd). The presence of bi-esters of dexmethsone cuses Dexfort to ct immeditely nd t lest for 8 d fter its dministrtion. Dexfort contins mg of dexmethsone phenylpropionte nd 1 mg of dexmethsone sodium phosphte. Dexfort ws injected 1 min before the infusion of endotoxin. Collection nd exmintion of semen. Semen ws smpled by mens of n rtificil vgin (Missouri model) twice week during four weeks nd 7 nd h before tretment (men mrked s time ), nd nd 7 h nd twice week during 9 weeks fter the LPS injection. The gel-free semen volume nd motility of spermtozo were recorded nd the concentrtion of spermtozo ws counted in hemocytometer. Semen morphology (eosin-nigrosin stining) ws studied ccording to Bielński et l. (). The percentge of bnorml forms of spermtozo, especilly the spermtozo with cytoplsmic droplet in distl (form 1), proximl nd typicl position (defects 1-3), with loops of the til: single loop (form ), double loop, loop of the end prt of the til, spirlling of the til, nd til looped round the hed (defects -8), two (or more) heds (form 13), nd smll ( dwrf ) heds (form 15), ws determined. Sttisticl nlysis. The dt were nlysed sttisticlly using the Sttistic SttSoft progrmme, with n nlysis of vrince (ANOVA). Differences between men vlues were nlysed with the Tuky test. Results re expressed s mens ± SD nd significnce ws defined s P<.5. Results The present work clims tht the dministrtion of endotoxin hd negtive influence on the qulity of stllion semen. The chnges in the gel-free semen volume, motility, nd concentrtion of spermtozo were observed (Figs 1-3). In group, there ws sttisticlly significnt decrese in the gel-free semen volume up to 1.5 ml ( GFSV - 1.%) t week fter the dministrtion of LPS. In the group +DX, there ws significntly incresed GFSV, up to 19.7 ml, GFSV - 11.%. Greter chnges were relted to the motility of spermtozo. In reltion to the initil time (time ) nd the experimentl group, the stllions receiving endotoxin demonstrted sttisticlly significnt decrese in the motility of spermtozo: in group t weeks 1 nd 3 nd between 5-8 (with the mximl decrese t week, up to 53.1%, TSM - 7.%), nd in group +DX t week 3, up to.1% ( TSM -.8%). In reltion to the initil vlue, the concentrtion of spermtozo ws significntly lower in the stllions from both groups. After endotoxin dministrtion, the concentrtion of spermtozo decresed between weeks -8 (mximum t week, up to 95. x 1 /ml, SC - 18.%) in the group, nd t week nd between weeks 5-8 (mximum t week 5, up to 13 x 1 /ml, SC -53.1%) in the +DX group. Figs -5 show the percentge of spermtozo with cytoplsmic droplet (defects 1-3), nd with til loop (defects -8). The percentge of spermtozo with cytoplsmic droplet (defects 1-3) ws higher in the experimentl stllions semen. In the groups nd +DX, there ws significnt increse between weeks -9 (mximum t week 3, up to 9.%, Defects %), nd between weeks 3-9 (mximum t week, up to.8, Defects %), respectively. When nlysing the chnges relted to ech defect, the experimentl stllions demonstrted prticulrly high rise of spermtozo with cytoplsmic droplet in distl position (Fig. ); in the group, it incresed between weeks -9 (mximum t week 5, up to.5% ( Form %), nd in the group +DX between weeks 3-8 (mximum t week, up to 5.8%, Form %. The percentge of spermtozo with til loops (defects -8) ws lso higher in both groups of experimentl stllions. In the groups nd +DX, the number of these defects ws significntly incresed between hour 7 nd week 9 (mximum t week 3, up to 1.%, Defects -8-1.%), nd t weeks 1-, nd between weeks -9 (mximum t week 8, up to 7.%, Defects -8-5.%), respectively. Among these defects, the experimentl stllions demonstrted the lrgest increse in the percentge of spermtozo with single til loop (Fig. 5). The increse of spermtozo with this defect ws noted in group, between hour nd week 9 (mximum t week 3, up to 5. % ( Form %). nd in group +DX between hour 7 nd week 9 (mximum t week 8, up to 5.3% ( Form %). After the dministrtion of LPS nd LPS+DX, there ws n increse in the percentge of spermtozo with two (or more) heds (form 13), nd smll ("dwrf") heds (form 15). In the group, there ws n increse in form 13 of spermtozo t week 8, up to 1.%, Form 13-3.%, nd form 15, t weeks -7, with mximum increse t week, up to.7%, Form %. In the group +DX, the percentge of form 13 spermtozo incresed t week 5, up to 1.%, Form 13-1.%, nd of form 15 spermtozo t week 5, up to.1%, Form 15 -.%. (Figs -7).

Discussion In the present work, it ws demonstrted tht the dministrtion of endotoxin hd negtive influence on the qulity of stllion semen. A sttisticlly significnt decrese in the gel-free semen volume, motility, nd concentrtion of spermtozo fter LPS dministrtion ws noted. As regrds ech of the morphologicl defects of the spermtozo, the percentge of those with cytoplsmic droplets, til loops, loose heds, two (or more) heded, nd smll "dwrf" heds ws clerly higher. The stllions (5, 7) receiving endotoxin demonstrted decrese in sperm concentrtion nd increse in the percentge of spermtozo with secondry chnges, i.e. with cytoplsmic droplet nd with til loops nd loose heds. Among the primry defects, spermtozo with dwrf nd gigntic heds were previling. The obtined results re close to the observtions of other uthors in mles of different niml species. In rms (8), treted with single doses (3. µg/kg b.w.), of S. typhimurium LPS s well s in the cse of repeted endotoxin dministrtion (.3 µg/kg b.w., 1 times, t 1 h intervls) nd in dose of. µg/kg b.w. (five times, t h intervls), the semen volume decresed in week 5, nd the motility of spermtozo decresed in weeks nd -, without ny negtive influence on the overll number of spermtozo in the semen. In weeks 1 nd 3-, ccording to the LPS dose pplied, there ws sttisticlly significnt increse in the percentge of spermtozo with bnorml heds. In these nimls, prt from primry chnges, there ws n increse in the percentge of spermtozo with cytoplsmic droplets in proximl position (week -). The dministrtion of endotoxin S. typhimurium to bors (7) hd no ny significnt influence on the semen volume, motility, nd totl number of spermtozo, but the percentge of spermtozo with morphologicl chnges ws higher. Prticulrly mrked increse in spermtozo with cytoplsmic droplets took plce in weeks -3 fter injection of. µg LPS/kg b.w., nd with coiled til in week fter injection of.5 µg LPS/kg b.w. Other defects such s nucler pouch formtion nd bnormlly shped sperm heds occurred in weeks 3- fter the dministrtion of the endotoxin. rlier reports lso showed tht steroidogenesis nd spermtogenesis re ffected during bcteril LPSinduced cute inflmmtion. Studies in bors showed tht endotoxin induced infiltrtion of polymorphonucler neutrophils into the testiculr interstitium nd morphologicl chnges of Leydig cells (9). In dult rts treted with LPS, it ws found tht the dmge to the seminiferous epithelium during inflmmtion is more likely to be due to direct effects of the inflmmtion, rther thn disturbnces in ndrogen production (). Oxidtive stress is mjor cusl fctor in ltered steroidogenesis nd spermtogenesis, nd perhps the infertility during endotoxin-induced cute inflmmtion (3). Dexmethsone belongs to group of drugs with nti-inflmmtory nd ntipyretic properties. The effects of corticosteroids were ssessed in endotoxemi, especilly during endotoxin shock, in horses (1, 1, 5). The role of DX in testiculr steroidogenesis or its influence on sperm production nd seminl chrcteristics is prtilly known (1, 8, 1). However, in vivo evidence suggests tht glucocorticords (DX) my decrese testosterone production indirectly vi the hypothlmic-pituitry-gondl xis (). Dexmethsone, so s IL-1β, inhibits LH-stimulted testosterone relese from mouse testiculr cells (3). In the present study, DX tretment prevented n endotoxin-induced decrese in the concentrtion of
8 588 spermtozo nd hd no cler influence on the gel-free semen volume nd on percentge of form spermtozo. A negtive influence of DX dministrtion ws noticed especilly, in percentge of forms 9 nd 15 of spermtozo nd seminl plsm lbumin concentrtion in the stllions treted with endotoxin. A previous pper () showed tht injection of DX only hd negtive influence on the morphologicl properties of spermtozo in the stllions. As regrds ech of the morphologicl defects of the spermtozo, the percentge of those with loose heds nd smll ("dwrf") heds ws clerly higher. Flunixin meglumine (non-steroidl ntiinflmmtory drug) t the dose of 1.1 mg/kg given fter the injection of scherichi coli LPS (.3 µg/kg b.w.) hd positive influence on the seminologicl chnges occurring during endotoxemi in the stllions (7). This pper showed tht the effects of flunixin were especilly visible for the motility nd concentrtion of spermtozo nd for morphologicl defects of spermtozo in stllions, which received the compound injection 5 min fter the infusion of endotoxin. In dult rts (13), it ws found tht co-dministrtion of dexmethsone inhibited the systemtic inflmmtory response, but did not prevent the locl inflmmtion in the testes. Dexmethsone did not prevent the lipopolyscchrideinduced erly inhibition of testosterone, but reversed lter inhibition of this hormone. In conclusion, the dministrtion of glucocorticoid - dexmethsone hd different effect on endotoxin-induced chnges of semen qulity in the stllions. A positive influence of DX ws noticed in certin mcro- nd microscopic chrcteristics of semen prmeters. There were noted smller chnges in totl motility nd concentrtion of spermtozo nd in the percentge of spermtozo with cytoplsmic droplet nd two (or more) heds, without influence on the gelfree semen volume. Greter, negtive chnges in the qulity of stllions semen fter dministrtion of endotoxin+dx, in reltion to the group of stllions with lone LPS, were noticed in the percentge of spermtozo with til loops, loose hed, nd smll ("dwrf") hed. Dexmethsone in ccepted therpeutic doses did not prevent nd to certin degree enhnced the dverse influence of endotoxin on the semen qulity in the stllions.
