The Effect of the Partial Obstruction Site of the Renal Vein on Testis and Kidney in Rats: Is the Traditional Animal Model Suitable for Varicocele Research?
PURPOSE We investigated the influence of the location of the partial renal vein obstruction on the left kidney, the bilateral testes, and cauda epididymal sperm quality and determined whether this animal model is suitable for varicocele study. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 25 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to three groups: group 1 (experimental varicocele by partial ligation ...
متن کاملProtective effects of celecoxib on inflammatory cytokine levels and testis indices after induction of varicocele
Introduction: Varicocele is a pathological dilation of spermatic cord vein plexus, and celecoxib, an inhibitor of cyclo-oxygenase-2, is widely used in the treatment of chronic inflammation. So, we examined the effects of celecoxib on inflammatory cytokines, testicular Sertoli and spermatogonial cells number, seminiferous tubule diameter, and sperm indices in immature male rats with induced vari...
متن کاملResveratrol decreases apoptosis and NLRP3 complex expressions in experimental varicocele rat model
Objective(s): Varicocele is an abnormal dilation in the testicular vein, which can cause hypoxia, reactive oxygen species accumulation, elevation in testicular temperature, and promote apoptosis and increase proinflammatory cytokine production. According to the varicocele pathophysiology, it is possible that a group of cytosolic receptors called nucleotide oligomerization domain (NOD)-like rece...
متن کاملتغییرات سطح اینترلوکین-6 و اینترفرون-گاما با گذشت زمان در رتهای نابالغ با واریکوسل
Background: Varicocele is a dilated vein of the pampiniform plexus that cause to det-rimental time-dependent effects so this study describes the effect of varicocele on the level of IL-6 and interferon gamma in serum and testis tissue, number of sertoli and spermatogonia cells, seminiferous tubules diameter and sperm activity in immature rats. Methods: Thirty six immature rats, 5-6 weeks aged ...
متن کاملP-11: Evaluation of Heat Shock Protein A2 in Male Rats before and after Varicocele Induction
Background: Varicocele is a major cause of male infertility, as it may impair spermatogenesis through several distinct pathophysiological mechanisms including hypoxia, renal-adrenal reflux, hormonal dysfunction, autoimmunity, oxidative stress and hyperthermia. HSP70s are members of the heat shock protein (HSP) family, which are considered intracellular chaperones. Their expressions can increase...
