A partir do trabalho aqui descritos pode-se concluir que o estudo a cerca do RNA espermático pode ser usado como uma ferramenta na detecção precoce de doenças como no caso da displasia da bainha fibrosa, cuja origem remete a alterações ocorridas durante a fase de paquíteno da espermatogênese. A mesma metodologia do estudo em humanos pode ser aplicada com amostras de outras espécies, conforme demonstrado no estudo com espermatozóides de carneiros. A detecção do mRNA para a HSP70 no espematozóide de carneiros Morada Nova abre perspectivas para estudos futuros sobre os efeitos do mRNA HSP70 no desenvolvimento embrionário, entretanto, maiores estudos devem ser realizados de modo a verificar se uma dieta contendo farelo de castanha de caju é capaz de alterar o perfil de transcritos no espermatozóide assim como alterou a expressão dos genes SCD e
