Effect of bilateral vasectomy on testicular metabolism in albino rats.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The adult Wistar strain albino rats were vasectomised by conventional method and maintained for six months. The vasectomized rat testis had elevated water content with depleted dry matter. Glycogen content was increased with indication of mobilization of hexoses into HMP pathway. The vasectomized rat testis showed preferential utilisation of triglycerides. In view of increased 3 beta-HSD and 17 beta-HSD activities, accelerated androgenesis was envisaged in vasectomized rat testis.

متن کاملA Morphometric Study of the Effects of Bilateral Vasectomy on Testis in Rats
SUMMARY The testes of five wistar rats 2 months after bilateral vasectomy was compared with those of shamoperated controls. Aims were to determine whether there are any changes in the wistar rat testis after vasectomy. Two testis in the vasectomized group displayed histological changes, which consisted of depletion of germ cells, vacuolation in the epithelium, folding of basement membrane ...

متن کاملEffects of Chemical Sympathectomy on Contralateral Testicular Histology and Fertility in Unilateral Vasectomy
Unilateral obstruction or injury to the vas deferens can result in significant injury to the contralateral testicle. Although various pathways have been proposed, the mechanism of contralateral testicular deterioration remains controversial. The present animal study was performed to evaluate the effects of unilateral vasectomy on ipsilateral and contralateral testicular histology and fertility ...
متن کاملP-211: The Effects of Vasectomy on Histological Structure of Epididymis and Testis in Rat Model
Background: Vasectomy is a simple and highly effective contraceptive method with a low morbidity rate and an extremely low mortality rate. during the past decade millions of men have undergone vasectomy, but there have been surprisingly few studies of morphological effects of genital organs after vasectomy. The most important issues about vasectomy are degenerative changes in testicular tissue,...
