Background: Lithium (Li) is widely used in the treatment of bipolar disorder, but it may lead to toxicity in the reproductive system. Considering the harmful effect of Li consumption on fertility and the positive effect of magnesium sulfate (MgSo) and moderate-intensity training (MIT) on improving the quality of men's sperm, the current research was conducted to determine the impact of MIT and MgSo on infertility caused by Li.

Materials And Methods: Seventy-two male rats were divided into 12 groups, control, Li10 mg/kg/day/ip, MgSo 80 mg/kg/day/ip; MIT; Li40 mg/kg/day/ip; Li10+MgSo; Li10+MIT; Li10+MgSo+MIT; Li40+MgSo; Li40+MIT; Li40+MgSo+MIT.

Objectives: Epstein-Barr virus has been recently associated with the onset of multiple sclerosis, yet understanding how it elicits autoimmunity remains elusive. We investigated the relation between Epstein-Barr virus reactivation and disease development in different subtypes of multiple sclerosis.

Methods: In the present research, we have determined the Epstein-Barr virus-DNA load by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Epstein-Barr virus antibody levels by EIA technique in both multiple sclerosis patients (n=78) and healthy controls (n=123).
