a Effect of VitE (150 mg/kg−1) and testosterone (400μgr/kg−1) administration on VCL-reduced serum level of testosterone (N = 6 rats for each group), a,b,c,d are indicating significant differences between control-sham group with non-treated VCL-induced group and between all treated groups with each other and with VCL-induced group. All data are presented in mean ± SD. b positive correlation between the percentages of Leydig cells with steroidogenesis with serum level of testosterone (r2 = 0.177, P < 0.05). Note; Con control-sham, VCL varicocele-induced, T testosterone-treated, E vitamin E received, T + E testosterone + vitamin E-administrated
