RESUMO
In recent years, the possibility of increasing the low cryoresistance of sturgeon sperm by using antioxidants in basic cryoprotective media has been studied. The goal of this work was to review the current literature on impact of the cryoprotectors, well-known antioxidants and new multifunctional compounds on the activity indicators and fertilizing capability of sperm, as well as on biomarkers of cryostress. A special attention is given to the radical scavenging activity of studied compounds in relation to the highly reactive oxygen species, to prevent and negate oxidative stress damage of sturgeon sperm. Also, new trends for future research through the application of novel polyfunctional antioxidants to sturgeon sperm cryopreservation were indicated.

The antioxidant and cryoprotective efficiencies of a 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)methylenediphosphonic acid (MDPA) differ significantly for sperm cells of various species of sturgeon fish (Russian sturgeon, beluga and Stellate sturgeon). The ability of phosphorus-containing phenol MDPA to decrease the level of lipid peroxidation of sperm, beneficial effect on the activity indicators of the sperm of native sturgeon and of the defrosted one after deep freezing as well as on the fertility of sperm cells was shown.

A cryoprotective effect of an addition of a new synthetic antioxidant - a representative of phosphorus-containing sterically hindered phenols is presented. The efficiency of the compound was shown to exceed the effect of lipid-soluble antioxidants butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and trolox in the conditions of cryopreservation of beluga sperm in the presence of the modified Stein's medium. It was shown that the level of carbonyl oxidation by-products, which can react with thiobarbituric acid (TBARS), in beluga sperm was inversely proportional to the motility time of sperm cells. The fertility of beluga sperm increased 2 times upon the addition of phosphorus-containing phenol to a modified Stein's medium. The prospects of the new antioxidant application to improve cryoresistance of beluga sperm in the conditions of cryopreservation for its efficient protection from the peroxidation processes are discussed.
