Here, we investigated the ability of an egg white hydrolysate (EWH) to counteract the reproductive toxic effects induced by Cd in rats. 3-month-old male Wistar rats were treated for 14 days: (a) Untreated group (distilled water i.p.); (b) Cd group (CdCl2 at 1 mg/kg body weight i.p.); (c) EWH group (1 g/kg body weight/day per gavage); (d) CdEWH group (CdCl2 with EWH). Cd exposure was able to be accumulated in testis and epididymis, increasing oxidative stress and compromising sperm quality and daily sperm production. Co-treatment with EWH prevented increased deposition of Cd in testis (Untreated: 0.04 ± 0.02; Cd: 4.68 ± 1.03*; EWH: 0.01 ± 0.00; CdEWH: 1.85 ± 0.25# μg Cd/g dry tissue p |
