Chronic Variable Stress May Induce Apoptosis in the Testis and Epididymal Sperm of Young Male Rats by Yeimy Mar De León-Ramírez, Leticia Nicolás-Toledo, Eliut Pérez-Sánchez, Omar Arroyo-Helguera

“…The expressions of PPAR-γ, p53, Bax, and Bcl-2 markers at the mRNA level were determined by real-time PCR, and the p-Akt, AP-2α, PPAR-γ, C/EBP-β and FAS protein levels were detected by immunoblot. The results showed low levels of p-Akt and AP-2α proteins and high levels of FAS, PPAR-γ, and C/EBP-β in the testicle and epididymis of rats exposed to CVS. …”
