Abstrakt: Sperm cryopreservation in small ruminant is an efficient strategy to distribute spermatozoa for reproductive programmes, but this process reduces the fertility potential of frozen-thawed spermatozoa. The aim of the current research was to evaluate the impact of different concentrations of cysteamine (CYS) in soybean lecithin (SL)-based medium on postthawed buck semen quality and fertility potential. Semen samples were collected from five bucks, twice a week, then diluted in the SL-based extender containing different concentrations of CYS as follows: extender containing 0 mM (control, C0), 1 mM (C1), 2 mM (C2), 4 mM (C4) and 8 mM (C8) CYS. Motility characteristics, membrane integrity, abnormal morphology, mitochondrial activity, acrosome integrity, viability, apoptotic-like changes, lipid peroxidation, DNA fragmentation, ROS concentration, pregnancy rate and kidding rate were evaluated after freeze-thaw process. In results, C1 resulted in greater (p ≤ 0.05) total motility, progressive motility, average path velocity, membrane integrity, mitochondrial activity, acrosome integrity, viability, pregnancy rate and kidding rate compared to the other groups. Furthermore, supplementation of freezing medium with 1 mM of CYS presented lower (p ≤ 0.05) apoptotic-like changes, lipid peroxidation, DNA fragmentation and ROS concentration compared to the other groups. On the other hand, C8 presented the least (p ≤ 0.05) total motility, progressive motility, average path velocity, membrane integrity, mitochondrial activity, acrosome integrity and viability as well as the highest (p ≤ 0.05) apoptotic-like changes, lipid peroxidation, DNA fragmentation and ROS concentration compared to the other groups. Therefore, supplementation of freezing medium with 1 mM CYS could be a helpful strategy to protect buck's spermatozoa quality and fertility potential during cryopreservation process.
