Palladium chloride-induced testicular damage in rats: Histopathology, oxidative stress, ER stress, and Nrf2/HO-1 signaling and the protective role of quercetin.

Overall, the findings indicate that Que mitigates PdCl₂-induced testicular injury, and that this protection may be associated with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, ER stress-related, and Nrf2/HO-1-associated responses rather than direct proof of pathway activation.

Antioxidant efficacy of N-acetylcysteine against acrylamide-induced toxicity in Leydig cells by modulating p53/Bax/Caspase-3 pathway.

Acrylamide (Acr) is a widely encountered environmental and dietary toxicant known to induce oxidative stress and disrupt male reproductive function. Leydig cells, due to their high metabolic activity and mitochondrial dependence, are particularly vulnerable to redox imbalance. N-acetylcysteine (Nac), a thiol-containing...

Niosomal Hesperidin-Rich Citrus Peel Extract Attenuates Testicular Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury in Rats by Modulating p53- and Caspase-3-Associated Apoptotic Responses

Niosomal hesperidin-rich Citrus peel extract provides superior protection against TIR-induced oxidative and apoptotic injury compared with free hesperidin, likely due to enhanced stability, and support the use of nanocarrier-based delivery systems to improve the therapeutic potential of natural antioxidants in reproduc...
