Acute effects of mimosine purified from Leucaena leucocephala on male reproductive system of adult mice
Int. j. morphol; 36 (2), 2018
This study attempted to examine the acute effect of purified minosine extracted from Leucaena leucocephala on male reproductive system. Adults male mice were divided into 4 groups (n =8); control and 3 experimental groups treated with purified mimosine at different doses of 15, 30, and 60 mg/KgBW, respec...
Methotrexate changes the testicular tyrosine phosphorylated protein expression and seminal vesicle epithelia of adult rats
Int. j. morphol; 36 (2), 2018
Methotrexate (MTX) is commonly used as a chemotherapy agent and immune system suppressant but its adverse effect on male reproductive system is still limited. This study aimed to investigate the effect of MTX on structure and functional proteins of testis and seminal vesicle. Adult male rats were divided...

The protective effect of Papaverine and Alprostadil in rat testes after ischemia and reperfusion injury
Int. braz. j. urol; 44 (3), 2018
ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the effect of papaverine and alprostadil on testicular torsion-detorsion injury in rats. Materials and Methods: A total of 40 male Wistar-Albino rats were used in this study. Four hours of right testicular torsion was applied to each group, excluding sham oper- ated g...

Antioxidant capacity of Momordica charantia extract and its protective effect on testicular damage in valproic acid-induced rats
Int. j. morphol; 36 (2), 2018
Although Momordica charantia (MC) has preventive effects on tissue injuries, antioxidant capacity and protective effect of MC pulp and peel (MCP) on valproic acid (VPA)-testicular damage have never been reported. Fresh MCPs were aqueous extracted and determined for antioxidant capacity and momordicine I ...

Prospective ultrasonographic study of blood flow and testicular volume in patients submitted to surgical repair of inguinal hernia without using prosthesis
Acta cir. bras; 33 (3), 2018
Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the behavior of arterial circulation and testicular volume in patients submitted to conventional inguinal hernia repair without the use of a synthetic prosthesis to reinforce the posterior wall. Methods: A prospective observational clinical trial was performed on 26 male ...
Investigation of the antioxidant effects of pheniramine maleate and nebivolol on testicular damage in rats with experimentally induced testis torsion
Acta cir. bras; 33 (2), 2018
Abstract Purpose: To investigate the biochemical, histopathologic, and spermatogenetic changes in the detorsionated testicle after experimental torsion and to study the antioxidant effects of pheniramine maleate and nebivolol. Methods: Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley male rats were divided into 4 groups: G...

Impact of testicular sperm extraction and testicular sperm aspiration on gonadal function in an experimental rat model
Int. braz. j. urol; 44 (1), 2018
ABSTRACT Purpose To assess the impact of sperm retrieval on the gonadal function of rats with impaired spermatogenesis by comparing testicular sperm extraction (TESE) to aspiration (TESA). The efficacy of these procedures to sperm obtainment was also compared. Materials and Methods A pilot study showed...
Effect of porcine somatotropin on metabolism, testicular size and sperm characteristics in young boars
Arq. bras. med. vet. zootec. (Online); 70 (1), 2018
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of pST injections on metabolism, testicular size, and sperm characteristics in young boars. Sixty 22-day old piglets were divided into two groups: pST (n=30) and Control (n=30). The pST group was submitted to pST injections (90µg/kg body weight) every thr...
