Effects of Intraperitoneal Administration of ATRA on the Testis of Elastase Induced Emphysematous Rats
Abstract: Emphysema is the pathological manifestation primarily associated with lungs. However, there are evidences of extra-pulmonary manifestations related to emphysema. The inflammation developed during emphysema triggers the release of several inflammatory mediators, which affects the proximal as well as distal organs. The present study was designed to determine the effect of inflammatory spillage on testicular tissue of male Sprague dawley rats; moreover, the main focus was to assess the potential role …

The Effect of Vitamin C on the Reproductive Functions of Paraquat Intoxicated Male Albino Rats (Rattus norvegicus)
Abstract: Paraquat (PQ) is a bipyridylium herbicide applied around trees in Orchids and between crop rows to control broad-leaved and grassy weeds. Its oxidation results in the formation of superoxides and supernitrite species which causes damage to cellular components. Studies have implicated PQ as one of the pesticides that contributes to the reduction in male reproductive functions in humans and animals during exposure. This study, therefore, determined the antioxidant effect vitamin …

A Study on the Impact of Paracetamol on Male Reproductive System: A Mini Review
Abstract: Paracetamol, a widely used analgesic and antipyretic, has been studied for its potential effects on the male reproductive system. Paracetamol is a medication commonly used to relieve mild to moderate pain. Research suggests that prolonged or high-dose use of paracetamol may adversely affect male fertility by disrupting hormone regulation, impairing sperm production, and reducing testosterone levels. Studies have shown that paracetamol can interfere with the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, leading to changes …
