Popis: | The influence of thyroxine-induced hyperthyroidism on testicular neutral and phospholipids was studied in prepubertal, pubertal and adult rats. Thyroxine treatment (25 μg/100 g body weight) for 1 month decreased testicular total lipids, total glyceride glycerols, total cholesterol and total phospholipids. Different classes of glyceride glycerol, cholesterol and phospholipid were also diminished due to thyroxine treatment. All classes of lipids returned to the euthyroid level after the withdrawal of thyroxine treatment. The data obtained in the present study suggest that thyroid hormones have a definite influence on testicular lipid metabolism in rats. |
