Infertility is well-established harmful effect in chronic alcoholism and so far, there is no effective treatment for this
condition. The study was conducted to determine the effects of alpha tocopherol on ethanol induced testicular injuries in
male albino rats of Wistar strain. Five groups (n=6) of animals were used. Group I served as control. Group II received daily
1.6g ethanol/kg body weight/day for 4 weeks orally. Group III received 1.6g ethanol+80mg alpha tocopherol/kg body weight/day
for four weeks orally. Group IV received 1.6g ethanol/kg body weight for/day 4 weeks and followed by 80mg alpha tocopherol/kg
body weight/day for four weeks orally. Group V received 1.6g ethanol/kg body weight/day orally for 4 weeks, followed by 4
weeks abstinence. Twently-four hours after the last treatment the rats were sacrificed using anesthetic ether. Testes were
removed and used for the estimation of extent of lipid peroxidation and tissue levels of antioxidants and steroidogenic enzymes.
Alpha tocopherol treatment increased the activities of testicularΔ
5, 3β-HSD. Moreover, the treatment was also associated with significant decrease in testicular oxidative stress. Ethanol-induced
oxidative stress and decreased steroidogenesis can be reversed by treatment with alpha tocopherol. 相似文献

The study was undertaken to evaluate the possible involvement of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of ethanol induced testicular
atrophy in rats. Adult male rats were orally administered ethanol at a dose of 1.6 g/kg body weight/day for four weeks. Twenty-four
hours after the last treatment the rats were sacrificed using anesthetic ether. Testes were removed and weighed. Apoptosis
was studied by using the Feulgen reaction on 5 μ thin paraffin sections of testis. Testicular homogenate was prepared and
centrifuged. The supernatant was used for the estimation of extent of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defense status. There
was significant reduction in body weight: and in testicular weight and diameter in ethanol treated rats. Extent of germ cell
apoptosis was significantly high in ethanol treated rats. Ethanol treated rats showed significantly high tissue TBARS level
and glutathione S-transferase activity; and low tissue ascorbic acid, reduced glutathione, superoxide dismutase, catalase,
glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase activities. Chronic ethanol administration resulted in high oxidative stress
in the testes either due to increased extent of lipid peroxidation or due to decreased antioxidant defenses, and thereby induces
germ cell apoptosis leading to testicular atrophy. 相似文献
