Salvia officinalis aqueous extract mitigates abamectin-induced testicular dysfunction in rats by targeting oxidative stress, mitochondrial fusion proteins, and key apoptotic regulators.

Results suggest that the S. officinalis extract could have therapeutic potential for ABM-induced male reproductive toxicity, and highlight the protective mechanisms of S. officinalis, including enhancing antioxidant defenses, promoting mitochondrial fusion, and inhibiting the intrinsic apoptotic pathway.
