Growth of mononuclear cell infiltration in submandibular glands is significantly inhibited by Org OD14 (tibolone), lynestrenol and ethylestrenol given orally to New Zealand Black/White (NZB/W) mice from 26 weeks of age onwards. In addition, the extent of already established mononuclear cell infiltrations is significantly inhibited and reduced by nandrolone decanoate injected from 43 weeks of age onwards. Tibolone and nandrolone decanoate are the most potent of the four drugs. The therapeutic effect of these four steroids on the Sjögren's syndrome-like disorder in NZB/W mice is not related to their endocrine activities.

This study aimed to compare the effects of nandrolone decanoate on the morphology and physiology of ovarian tissues in two experimental models, Zebrafish and rats, after in vitro cultivation. A total of 136 animals were used ( rats, n=36, and Zebrafish, n=100). In both experiments, the animals were divided into two groups (Control and Deca) and were exposed to nandrolone decanoate for seven weeks.

Purpose: This study examined the effect of resistance training (RT) by itself and in combination with supraphysiological administration of nandrolone decanoate (ND) on the inflammatory, apoptotic, and oxidative stress response in cardiac tissue. The effect of the training and androgen intervention on adiponectin expression, a potential cardio protectant was also examined.
Methods: Forty male C57Bl/6J mice, 3 months of age were randomized into four groups (n = 10 per group).

Introduction: The use of anabolic steroids is widely adopted for aesthetic purposes and sports performance. In supraphysiological doses, they can impair various physiological systems. However, we know little about their effects on the heart, especially when combined with strength training.

Anabolic-androgenic steroids (AASs) impairment of reproduction has been reported. We investigated dose- and time-dependent effects of Nandrolone decanoate (ND) on reproductive system in comparison with Testosterone enanthate (TE). Male Wistar rats were administrated with 1, 3, and 9 mg/kg/weeks ND or 1 and 3 mg/kg/weeks TE for 8 weeks, and testicular phenotype and reproductive hormones were assessed at 4 and 8 weeks post-treatments.
