- W2743689832 abstract "Effects of ribavirin on the structure of peritubular sheath (PS) of seminiferous tubules and on testicular functions were studied. We found that ribavirin at a dose of 4 mg/kg/day for 4 weeks produced a significant reduction in testosterone level (6.3 ± 0.2; P < 0.001) and in spermatogenic score count (3.8 ± 0.2; P < 0.001) compared to control values. The thickness of PS (17.8 ± 1.13) and tubular lumen perimeter (1024.7 ± 67) was significantly increased compared to controls (10.7 ± 0.70; P < 0.001 and 808 ± 25; P = 0.004, respectively). The length of germinal epithelium (411.8 ± 39) and tubular external diameters (1661.8 ± 115) was significantly reduced compared to control values (708.4 ± 40; P < 0.001 and 2358.8 ± 169; P < 0.001, respectively). The basement membranes (BMs) were thickened with great deposition of collagen. Myoid cells showed altered structure and extracellular matrix revealed disorganization by excessive collagen I and IV accumulation. Testicular damage was established histologically. Evidence of apoptosis was detected in germ cells. There was a significant increase in integrated density of Casp-3 expression (38,121,743 ± 1,763,420; P < 0.001) in seminiferous tubules compared to control (24,788,409 ± 1,900,140). It is concluded that ribavirin can cause alterations of the testicular function and structure with increased apoptosis in the tissues after 4 weeks of administration. The damaging effect could be persuaded by destruction of the peritubular sheath." @default.
