چکیده
Reduced nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), required as co-factor for lipogenesis and steroidogenesis, may, in part, be supplied by pyridine nucleotide transhydrogenation mediated by malate dehydrogenase (oxaloacetate+NADH\ar=r\malate+NAD) and the malate (`malic') enzyme (malate+NADP\ar=r\pyruvate+CO2 +NADPH). The malate transhydrogenation reactions (cf. Ballard & Hanson, 1967, for references) are apparently of

P-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,...

Purpose: The evaluation of L-Carnitine effect on the testis tissue of mature rats exposed to Cadmium. Materials and Methods: This research was carried out on 30 mature male rats, weighting about 180-240gr. Animals were divided into five groups. The first group (control group) received nothing. The second group (distilled water,0.3ml). third group (L-Carnitine 500mg/kg Body Weight). fourth group...
متن کاملThe Effects of Caffeine Consumption on Histomorphometric Changes of Seminal Vesicle and Epididymis in Rat Offspring: An Experimental Study
Background and Objectives: Caffeine decreases the testis volume and the number of spermatogenic cells in seminiferous tubules of rat testis. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the impact of caffeine exposure during pregnancy and lactation on seminal vesicle and epididymis in rat offspring. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 21female pregnant rats were divided into ...
