Effects of gentamycin induced testicular damage and pioglitazone treatment on serum TNF-α and IL-6 levels.

Group Variable	GI (n = 10)	GII (n = 10)	GIII (n = 10)	GIV (n = 10)	GV (n = 10)
TNF-α (pg/mL)	11.80 ± 0.43 ^bcde	79.66 ± 0.89 ^acde	36.80 ± 0.49 ^abde	32.23 ± 0.39 ^abde	20.93 ± 1.03 ^abc^d
IL-6 (pg/mL)	13.68 ± 0.52 ^bcde	87.20 ± 1.53 ^acde	66.05 ± 0.52 ^bde	46.75 ± 3.41 ^b^de	32.18 ± 0.29 ^b^cd

GI: CTL, normal control, GII: GM, gentamycin induced testicular damage, GIII: PIO 5 pioglitazone treated (5 mg/kg/day), GIV: PIO 10 pioglitazone treated (10 mg/kg/day) and GV: PIO 20 pioglitazone treated (20 mg/kg/day). Values are expressed as mean ± SEM, (^a) compared to control group (GI), (^b) compared to GM treated group (GII), (^c) compared to PIO 5 (GIII) group, (^d) compared to PIO 10 (G IV) group, (^e) compared to PIO 20 (GV) group.
