Histological and DNA fragmentation impact of aluminum oxide nanoparticles in male albino rats and the role of fenugreek plant extract by Zainab R. Hameed, Areej A. Zabbon, Genan A. Al-Bairuty

“…Results: showed that Al₂O₃-NPs caused Testes sections to show seminiferous tubules with certain degeneration and necrosis of spermatogonia cells besides necrotic debris inside the lumen, no sperms appearing inside the lumen, as well as a significant increase (P≤ 0.05) in DNA fragmentation in sperms, fenugreek seed aqueous extract, on the other hand, improved testicular tissue and dramatically decreased DNA fragmentation. Conclusions: The current study concluded that Al₂O₃ caused through oral administration in high concentrations and for long terms causes tissue testicular damage and an increase the DNA fragmentation by generating oxidative stress and aqueous extract of fenugreek seeds succeeded in alleviating the harmful effects of Al₂O₃ and by curbing DNA- fragmentation. …”
