Özet |
This study aimed to investigate the effect of chrysin on colistin-induced reproductive toxicity. Twenty-eight adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups of seven rats each. Group I received physiological saline for 7 days. Group II received 50 mg/kg/day chrysin for 7 days. Group III received a total dose of 73 mg/kg colistin for 7 days. Group IV received 50 mg/kg/day chrysin by an oral gavage after the colistin treatment. Colistin causes an increase in oxidative stress (OS) in the testis. Chrysin treatment significantly decreased the OS in the chrysin + colistin group compared with the colistin group. The highest caspase-3 and LC3B expression levels were found in the colistin group and these levels were statistically lower in the chrysin + colistin group. Colistin treatment caused a decrease in sperm motility and an increase in sperm abnormality. Chrysin treatment mitigated these side effects significantly. In conclusion, chrysin treatment can be beneficial against colistin-induced reproductive toxicity. |
