Astaxanthin Promotes Spermatogenesis in Mice by Reducing Mitochondrial Oxidative Stress Damage and Regulating Fatty Acid Metabolism and Ferroptosis
Astaxanthin can regulate the metabolism of fatty acid through the ferroptosis pathway, and reduce the mitochondrial oxidative stress damage, and further regulate FADS2, Steap3, and other factors to promote spermatogenesis.
