Abstract:

Background: Imedeen tablets are revolution in anti-aging skincare. This tablets contains Biomarin complex (rich in natural proteins and Marin polysaccharides) and Lycophence GS complex rich in grape seeds extract and lycophence antioxidant,helps to give the skin protection against both direct and indirect damage that caused by free radicals.Cyclophosphamide as an anticancer agent has been known as a male reproductive toxic agent.Therefore the purpose of this study was to investigate whether Imedeen as an established antioxidant and anti-toxicant might have protective effects on reproductive toxicity of CP by assessment of histological characteristics in male mice or not. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study,60 mature male mice were assigned to six groups,10 mice in each. The animals allocated to control group, CP treated in 12 mg/kg/day, Imedeen treated in a first dosage 111 μg/kg/day,Imedeen treated in second dosage 222 μg/kg/day, CP treated and Imedeen treated in first dosage and the last group CP treated and Imedeen treated in second dosage. After 35 days animals were sacrificed. Histological and histomorphometrical analysis of testis was carried out.serum levels of testosterone was evaluated. Results: In CP treated group the histological and histomorphometrical study of testis confirmed the percentage of seminiferous tubules with positive tubular differentiation (TDI), repopulation (RI) and spermatogenesis (SPI) indexes were significantly (p<0.05) less than those of control and Imedeen treated groups and there was an obvious structural changes such as appearance of vacuolated edema in the interstitial connective tissue between the seminiferous tubules with increased hypertrophic mass of leydig cells;while Imedeen use diminished the adverse effects of CP (p<0.05). Conclusion: The present results highly support the idea that CP can adversely damage the testicular tissue, but Imedeen could effectively prevent these adverse effects by inhibiting of oxidative processes and efficient scavenging of free radicals.

Background: cyclophosphamide is anticancer agent that has been toxic effects on male reproductive system.The antioxidant agents in imedeen such as lycophence GS and Biomarine complex play important role in preventing the direct and indirect effects of free radicals caused by CP; therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of Imedeen on sperm characteristics of mature male m...

Protective effect of ethyl pyruvate on testicular histology and fertilization potential in cyclophosphamide treated mice

In the present study, we aimed to address the use of ethyl pyruvate (EP) against the harmful effects of cyclophosphamide (CP) treatment. Thirty-nine adult male mice were divided into three groups including control group received normal saline [0.20 mL per day; intraperitoneally (IP)], CP group received CP (15.00 mg kg-1 per week, IP) and CP+EP group received EP (40.00 mg kg-1</s...

Protective effects of cornus mas extract on in vitro fertilization potential in methotrexate treated male mice

Current study was aimed to evaluating protective effects of cornus mas fruit extract (CMFE) in mice treated with methotrexate (MTX). For this purpose, 48 young mature male mice were divided into 6 groups. Control group received only normal saline (0.1 mLper day, intraperitoneally), and the second group was administered MTX (20 mg kg-1 perweek, intraperitoneally). The third, ...

P-2: Protective Effects of Ethyl Pyruvate on Serum Antioxidant Capacity and Testis Germinalepithelium Morphometryin Cyclophosphamide Treated Mice

Background Cyclophosphamide (CP) is a chemotherapeuticdrug which causes deleterious effects on tissue of testicle and increases free radicals in the body. The aim of this study is to investigate protective effects of ethyl pyruvate (EP) on improvement of testicle inCP treated animals. MaterialsAndMethods In this study, 15 male mice(6-8 weeks) were divided into 3 groups. Control group receivedno...

Protective effects of eicosapentaenoic acid on genotoxicity and oxidative stress of cyclophosphamide in mice.

The aim of this article is to elucidate the mechanism by which eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) acts against cyclophosphamide (CP)-induced effects. The prevalence of micronuclei, the extent of lipid peroxidation, and the status of the antioxidant enzymes, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPX) in both liver and serum of mice were used as intermediate biomarkers of c...

P-87: Effect of Oxidative Stress on Sperm quality and Testis Histopathology in Mature Male Mice

Background: Infertility is a major clinical and worldwide reproductive problem that affects approximately 15% of young couples. The male factors are responsible for periphery 50 percent of these cases. Recently, the generation of oxidative stress, also described as an imbalance between the production of Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the body’s antioxidant defence mechanisms, in the male rep...
