We investigated the contribution of angiotensin II (Ang II) to the development of interstitial fibrosis after vasectomy. Materials and Methods: Bilateral vasectomy was performed in 8-week-old Wistar rats and the testes were harvested 1 to 24 weeks after vasectomy. Interstitial fibrosis was evaluated by Masson’s trichrome staining. Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were done to examine the expressions of heat shock protein 47 (HSP47), HNE (4-hydroxy-2,3-nonenal) and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1). The antioxidative agent N-acetylcysteine (NAC), the Ang II type 1 receptor antagonist losartan or the Ang converting enzyme inhibitor enalapril was given orally for 24 weeks to vasectomized rats. Spermatogenesis was evaluated by testicular weight and the percent of haploid cells was analyzed by flow cytometry. Results: Vasectomy significantly increased interstitial fibrosis (more than 8 weeks) and induced the expression of HSP47, HNE modified protein and TGF-β1. TGF-β1 and HSP47 immunoreactivity was localized to Leydig cells and fibroblasts. NAC or losartan but not enalapril inhibited the expression of these molecules induced by vasectomy. Increased interstitial fibrosis and impaired spermatogenesis were partially abrogated by NAC or losartan administration. Conclusions: There is Ang II type 1 receptor dependent fibrosis after vasectomy. Oxidative condition is considered to trigger and promote these fibrogenic processes. Ang II contributes to the regulation of intratesticular autocrine or paracrine functions after vasectomy. References 1 : Quantitative pathologic changes in the human testis after vasectomy.
