Background: Cyclosporine-A(CsA) is an immunosuppressive polypeptide which is produced byTolypocladium inflatum gams and can cause infertility. Satureja hortensis or summer savory is a one year plant from Lamiaceae family which is used as a motive drug, anti-bloat, anti-infection and sexual power enhancer. According to positive effects of S. hortensis and negative effects of CsA we will evaluate...

Objective(s):  Medicinal benefits of quantum dots have been proved in recent years but there is little known about their toxicity especially in vivo toxicity. In order to use quantum dots in medical applications, studies ontheir in vivo toxicity is important.  Materials and Methods:CdSe:ZnS quantum dots were injected in 10, 20, and 40 mg/kg doses to male mice10 days later, mice were sacrificed ...

Background Male infertility management has made significant progress during the past three decades, especially after the introduction of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in 1992. However, many boys and men still suffer from primary testicular failure due to acquired or genetic causes. New and novel treatments are needed to address these issues. Spermatogenesis originates from spermatogon...

  Background: Genital injuries are important because of their association with injuries to major organs and vasculature of pelvis. Both degolving of genitalia skin and amputation of penile glans and testis are rare conditions. Although genital injury is rarely life threatening, it can result in serious sexual, psychological and physiological consequences. This study aimed to introduce few ...

This research aims to study testis and epididymis of dry land goat (Capra hircus) on B-mode ultrasound imaging. Twelve adult local male goats were examined normal testes ultrasonic appearances. real time scanner with a 7.5 MHz, linear array transducer was used evaluate the echotexture testicular parenchyma, mediastinum epididymis. The parenchyma represented uniformly homogenous moderately echog...

Background: Quantum dots are commonly composed of cadmium contained semiconductors. Cadmium is potentially hazardous but toxicity of such quantum dots is not yet systematically investigated. On the other hand, in vitro studies have shown almost complete control of CdSe induced cytotoxicity by ZnS coverage. Toxicity of CdSe quantum dots and controlling this toxicity by ZnS coverage in immature m...

Ectopic testis is described as an abnormality of testicle development in which one or both testicles aren’t descending through the normal pathways. Among all newborns with undescended testis, only 1% are diagnosed ectopic testis. In this case, 18 months old boy was presented to hospital chief complaint impalpable dextra.
