Background Nonyl phenol (NP) has been considered an endocrine disrupting substance causing reproductive dysfunction and increase in reactive oxygen species production in different organs including testis. vitamin E (VitE) is a potent scavenger of free radicals and is able to prevent the membrane damage mediated by free radicals The aim of this study was to elucidate the protective effects of Vi...

Regarding the fast development of nanotechnology and its various applications, present study was carried out to estimate potential toxic effect silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on fertility male albino mice. Thirty-five adult mice were randomly divided into 5 groups (7 per group) as following: first group (GP

Background: One of the major factors affecting on male infertility is oxidative stress (OS). Two main sources of ROS production are leukocytes and spermatozoa. The ROS such as tertiary-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) may damage and fragmentate to sperm DNA, which can lead to complications in the offspring. In this study, we will investigate the effect of od on DNA fragmentation index (DFI) in sperm ...

background: heroin as opium is being used in two pure and impure forms with known disastrous effects on different body organs including genital system. the aim of this study was to determine the changes in testosterone secretion, the percentage of fertility, changes of the body and testis weight, and gonado somatic index in mice (ballb/c). materials and methods: a total of 90 adult male and fem...

Background: Prescription of the atypical antipsychotic drugs like as Sulpiride for the treatment of schizophrenic patients was increased because of their less side effects. This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of sulpiride on hormonal milieu of adult male mice namely their serum level of prolactin and sexual hormones. Materials and Methods: 24 adult male mice were divided in three groups...

background: brain is the most important organ as it controls and co- ordinates all the activities of our body. reports on neuroethological investigations in mice particularly associated with learning and memory after radiation exposure are very scanty. hence, present investigation is an attempt to examine the effects of low dose tritiated water (hto) acute exposure on adult swiss albino mice in...
