In recent years, resveratrol has been shown to protect against metabolic damage, including obesity-associated subfertility/infertility. In the present study, proteomic alterations in testicular tissues were investigated by tandem mass tag (TMT) in mice fed with a high-fat diet (HFD) without or with resveratrol supplementation (HFD+RSV). Serum testosterone levels, spermatozoa parameters and testicular histological morphology were assessed. Resveratrol treatment was shown to significantly reduce serum cholesterol, prevent the HFD-induced reductions in serum testosterone and spermatozoa parameters, and decrease the ultrastructural degeneration of testicular tissues. The comparative proteomics analysis revealed 58 differentially expressed proteins between the HFD and control groups and 38 differentially expressed proteins between the HFD and HFD+RSV groups. Gene ontology (GO) term enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis revealed that the most highly enriched differential proteins were correlated to spermatozoa function and cholesterol metabolism. The real-time RT-PCR and western blotting results confirmed the differential expression of the corresponding proteins related to spermatozoa function that were identified by proteomics. The present study provides new insight into the mechanisms of the beneficial effects of resveratrol, and may present it as a potential therapeutic strategy for obesity-associated male subfertility/infertility.
