Evaluation of spermatogenesis (Johnsen's score) in TI/R rats after 30 d of different treatments
| Experimental groups | Johnsen's score |
|---|---|
| Sham + vehicle | 9.6 ± 0.5 |
| Sham + NDP-α-MSH | 9.7 ± 0.5 |
| TI/R + vehicle | 3.0 ± 1.0a |
| TI/R + NDP-α-MSH | 6.9 ± 3.4b |
| Chlorisondamine + TI/R + NDP-α-MSH | 2.7 ± 0.8c |
| HS024 + TI/R + NDP-α-MSH | 2.4 ± 1.0c |
All treatments were ip carried out starting immediately after reperfusion, once daily for 30 d. Data are presented as means ± sd.
a
P < 0.005 vs. sham + vehicle.
b
P < 0.005 vs. TI/R + vehicle.
c
P < 0.005 vs. TI/R + NDP-α-MSH.
