Popis: Single doses of anticancer drug biocarbazine (BC)--DTIC synonym--were injected intraperitoneally at 50 and 200 mg/kg body weight to sexually mature BALB/c mice. Among other features previously reported (Martinova et al. 1989) BC causes ultrastructural alterations in spermatogonia and spermatocytes significantly expressed after administration of higher dose. In addition BC induces some defects in acrosome formation of early spermatids in Golgi and cap phase, while spermatids in later stages of maturation showed marked resistance to BC treatment.
