Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how Cornus Mas (CM) extract affects testicular damage in rats caused by nicotine exposure, highlighting the role of oxidative stress in disease development.
  • Thirty Wistar albino rats were split into four groups for 35 days, with one group receiving both nicotine and CM extract, showing improved testicular health and reduced oxidative stress markers.
  • Findings indicate that nicotine damages testicular cells and disrupts spermatogenesis, while CM extract helps protect against these harmful effects, pointing to potential therapeutic options for oxidative stress-related conditions.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the effects of testicular tissue resection (TTR) on testicular compartment syndrome (TCS) in rats, aiming to improve blood flow and reduce pressure within the testis.
  • Out of 24 adult rats, those that underwent TTR after detorsion showed significantly less damage compared to those that only had detorsion, indicating that resecting tissue can be beneficial for tissue recovery.
  • Results suggest that TTR might be a useful treatment option in TCS cases where other surgical remedies are not viable or in delayed presentations, as it helps lower tissue injury compared to detorsion alone.

Carob attenuates nicotine-induced oxidative stress and intratesticular damage in male rats.

Andrologia

October 2020

Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine, Yozgat Bozok Üniversity, Yozgat, Turkey.

In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of carob extract against intratesticular histological, apoptotic, biochemical and spermatogenic changes in rats exposed to nicotine. Twenty-eight rats were divided into four groups and were administered saline, nicotine, carob, or nicotine + carob once a day for 35 days. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX), GSH, total anti-oxidative status (TAS), total oxidative status (TOS), oxidative stress index (OSI), IL-6, TNF-α and seminal parameters were evaluated.
