Abstract:

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 receivednormal saline (0.1ml/day, IP), CP group received CP (15 mg/kg/week, IP), and CP+EP group treated with EP (40 mg/kg/day,IP) along with CP. After 35 days, serum total antioxidant capacity (TAC)and samples of testis were used for measurement of the germinal epitheliumthickness and malondialdehyde (MDA) assaying. Results This study showed that mean thickness of germinal epithelium in the CP+EP group were higher than those of the CP group (P

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...

P-33: Ameliorative Effects of Ethyl Pyruvate on Testis Histochemistry, Serum Superoxide Dismutase and Testosterone in Chemotherapeutic Mice

Background Infertility and fertility decline are quite a conundrum for medicine, rampant among 10-15 percent of couples. In about 40 percent of cases, men are the main culprit. Since sperm production disorders are the focal cause of man infertility, insights into these disorders and taking action to ameliorate the situation is quite vital. The current study concentrates on infertility due to sp...
