The effect of Moringa leaves on sperm cell maturation level in rat testis metabolic syndrome model

Metabolic syndrome is a combination of several metabolic diseases such as diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease and stroke. The ethanolic extract of Moringa Oleifera leaves showed an antioxidant effect in the form of a significant reduction in the production of intracellular ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species) in sperm. This study aims to determine the effect of the ethanolic extract of Moringa leaves (Moringa Oleifera, Lam.) on the level of sperm cell maturation in the testes of wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus) using the Johnson score. And the result, an increase in sperm maturation scores was obtained using the Johnson score. After being given the ethanolic extract of Moringa Oleifera (Moringa Oleifera, Lam). We can concluded that Giving ethanolic extract of Moringa leaves (Moringa Oleifera, Lam) to white rats (Rattus norvegicus) induced by metabolic syndrome was significant to the sperm maturation level of white rats, in the form of increasing sperm maturation scores using the Johnson score.
