Conventional sperm selection based on motility and morphology fails to provide detailed information on sperm functional and molecular status. Magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) protocol aims to optimize this process by selecting apoptotic sperm cells. Phospholipase C zeta-1 (PLCz1) is a physiological stimulus for oocyte activation and early embryonic development. The purpose of this study was to examine seminal parameters, DNA fragmentation index (DFI), and PLCz1 expression levels in MACS-DGC sorted specimens (DFI > 30%) and assess early development in resulting embryos. Semen specimens from 60 patients diagnosed with male factor infertility were collected and processed by either density gradient centrifugation (DGC) or MACS-DGC protocols. Pre and post-preparation analysis was performed. PLCz1 expression was assessed using the RT-PCR method. Retrieved eggs from their partners were divided into two groups in which they were injected with different sorted sperm. The fertilization rate and embryonic development were evaluated. While sperm's progressive motility and morphology significantly improved, there was a substantial decline in DFI following MACS-DGC. Fertilization rates were almost the same between the groups, and the latter resulted in remarkably more top-quality embryos and more blastocysts. PLCz1 expression was considerably higher in the MACS-DGC group. By eliminating apoptotic cells, the MACS-DGC technique could sort highly PLCz1-expressed sperm, optimize sperm selection in individuals with elevated DFI, development of resulting embryos.
