Methods Adult male Wistar rats were treated daily for 8 weeks with GA at 50mg/kg plus testosterone undercanoate （100 mg/kg）/desogestrel （0.125 mg/kg）/mini-dose ethinylestradiol （0.025 mg/kg） （TU/DSG/EE）, followed by a period of 9 weeks for recovery. Control animals were administered the same dose of GA or TU/DSG/EE, and vehicle, respectively. Testis weight, testicular sperm head count and histological analysis were utilized to assess the spermatogenesis. Results At the end of the 9-week reovery period, in rats given GA alone, spermato- genesis steadily declined. However, when rats received combined hormone adminis- tration during GA treatment, this decline was prevented and an complete recovery of spermagenesis occurred. The haploid spermatids and spermatocytes was not to be protected but to be more aggravatedly damaged. The excellent recovery must have resulted from that the hormone treatment could protect the ability of stem spermatogonia to differentialte and evolve progressively into mature spermatozoa. In addition, the concentrations of serum LH, FSH and intratesticular testosteron （ITT） notably decreased after 2 or 8 weeks of treatment, then returned to control levels at the end of 9-week recovery period.Conclusion Steriod hormone treatment enhaces the recovery of spermatogenesis through preventing seminiferous epithelim from GA-induced destructive damage in rats. The enhanced recovery was closely associated with the marked suppression in intratesticular testosteron （ITT）.展开更多
Gossypol and Misoprostol could directly damage the luteal and decidual cells cultured in vitro.

The LD50 of gossypol alone to luteal and decidual cells were 1.27±0.09 μg/ml and 3.06±0.23 μg/ml, respectively; however when combined with misoprostol (to luteal cells 5μg/ml, or to decidual cells 10μg/ml), the LD50 of gossypol signifcantly decreased to 0.89±0.25 μg/ml and 1.88±0.26 μg/ml, respectively. The LD50 of misoprostol alone to luteal and decidual cells were 14.29±1.29μg/ml and 24.37±4.49 μg/ml, respectively; but it decreased to 8.79±2.18 μg/mland 17.29±1.56 μg/ml, respectively when combined with gossypol (to luteal cells 0.5 μg/ml, or to decidual cells 1.0 μg/ml), also showing statistical difference. The results suggested that the combination of gossypol with misoprostol had synergistic effect on the degeneration of luteal and decidual cells in vitro.展开更多
