Abstract:
0.05), while the expression of CuZn-SOD mRNAwas significantly higher in the experimental group(0.366?0.085) than in the control group(0.221?0.043) (P0.05). Conclusions An experimental varicocele can lead to increased reactive oxygen species and decreased antioxidant enzymes levels in prostate, which may be one of the important factors of male infertility induced by varicocele.
