| Popis: | Objective(s): Oxaliplatin (OXL) is a platinum-based chemotherapeutic agent widely used in the treatment of colorectal cancer. Unfortunately, this important drug also causes unwanted side effects such as neuropathy, ototoxicity, and testicular toxicity. This study aimed to investigate the possible protective effects of naringin (NRG) against OXL-induced testicular toxicity in rats. Materials and Methods: In the present study, rats were injected with OXL (4 mg/kg, b.w./day, IP) in 5% dextrose solution 30 min after oral administration of NRG (50 and 100 mg/kg, b.w./day) on the 1st, 2nd, 5th, and 6th days. Then, the rats were sacrificed on the 7th day and the testicular tissues were removed. Results: The results showed that NRG decreased (P |
