Popis: | Aims Current study was conducted to uncover the effect of high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity on heat shock proteins 70-2a and 90 expression levels and to investigate the network between these proteins with PCNA expression, endocrine status of testicular tissue and nucleotide backbone damages. Main methods For this purpose, 20 mature male Wistar rats were divided into two groups of control and HFD-received obese animals (n = 10/group). After 8 weeks from obesity approval, the animals were euthanized. The expression levels of Hsp70-2a, Hsp90 and PCNA were analyzed by qRT-PCR and immunohistochemical staining techniques. The Leydig cell distribution/mm2 of interstitial tissue, serum level of testosterone, testicular total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and mRNA and DNA damage were investigated. Key findings The obese (HFD-received) animals represented a remarkable (p Significance Therefore, considering massive testicular DNA damage in the obese (HFD-received) animals, we can conclude that an increased expression of Hsp70-2a and Hsp90 with no harmony with PCNA could not properly maintain the cellular DNA integrity and/or appropriately finalize the DNA repair process. |
