The present study aims to investigate the effect of BPA on sperm functions, fertilization and to evaluate their association with the activity of fertility related proteins in spermatozoa. We used a comprehensive in vitro test system to evaluate the effect of various concentrations of BPA (0.0001, 0.01, 1, and 100 μM) on mouse spermatozoa following 6 h of incubation. Our results showed that high concentration of BPA inhibited sperm motility and motion kinematics by significantly decreasing ATP levels in spermatozoa. Simultaneously, exposure of spermatozoa to high concentrations of BPA increased the tyrosine phosphorylation of sperm proteins involved in PKA-dependent regulation and induced a robust AR, ultimately results in poor fertilization and compromised embryonic development. Finally, BPA effects on selected group of fertility related proteins in spermatozoa, such as it degraded the β-actin, whereas the levels of peroxiredoxin-5, glutathione peroxidase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and succinate dehydrogenase were increased. Based on these results, we propose that high concentration of BPA may alter overall sperm functions, fertilization and embryonic development, in association with degradation and/or phosphorylation of fertility related proteins in spermatozoa.
