Quantum dots are new types of fluorescent materials for biological labeling. As a result, QDs toxicity study is an essential requirement for future clinical applications. Therefore, the cytotoxic CdSe:ZnS quantum dots effects on some organs in mice are presented in this study. In this work, 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg doses of CdSe:ZnS quantum dots were injected to 32 adult male mice. Structural and op...

Background: In vitro spermatogenesis has a long research history beginning in the early 20th century. This organ culture method was therefore abandoned, and alternative cell culture methods were chosen by many researchers. Here, whether Tnp1, Tekt1, and Plzf, which play a crucial role in spermatogenesis, can be expressed during testis organ culture was assessed. Methods: Testes of 10 mouse pups...

Introduction: The impact of chromium exposure was studied on liver, kidney, testis, spleen, cerebrum and cerebellum of male Wistar rats (80-100 g body weight). Material & Method: It was observed that treatments of rats with chromium (i.p. at a dose of 0.8 mg / 100 g body weight per day) for a period of 28 days caused significant increase in chromium content while declining the body weight a...

Background: Acyclovir (9-(2-hydroxyethoxymethyl) guanine) (ACV) is an acyclic nucleoside analogue that has shown a potent antiviral activity, and it is known to inhibit the replication of herpesviruses including herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and type 2 (HSV-2), varicella- zoster virus (VZV), and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in cell cultures and in animals. ACV is khown to be toxic to gonads,t...

A testis biopsy is used to assess quantitatively testicular spermatogenesis in infertile patients. Recently, several reports have used less invasive, percutaneous methods to obtain testis tissue. Percutaneous testis biopsies and touch imprints, immediately followed by open testis biopsies, were performed on 24 testes (19 patients) to ascertain whether they could provide the same histological in...

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,...

The assessment of the indicators reproductive potential male white rats exposed to smoke for 1 month was carried out. Examination animals included determination spermatogenesis index and level DNA fragmentation methylation in testes blood. A statistically signifi-cant increase genome-wide blood revealed. morphometric study testis tissue revealed a violation indices rats.
