Lipoic acid abates testis lead accumulation, sperm-endocrine deficits, testicular oxidative inflammation and apoptosis and modulates gene expression of Bax and Bcl-2 in rats
The current study explored whether ALA could prevent testis Pb accumulation and Pb-induced oxidative testicular toxicity in rats. Adult male rats were randomly divided and administered ALA (25 mg/kg/day) and/or Pb (Pb acetate, 20 mg/kg/day) in Control group, ALA group, Pb group, and ALA + Pb group f...
