Vegetable oils have an important place in our daily diet. This study starts from this point to investigate the effects of canola oil and hazelnut oil in the male reproductive system in rats.
30 male rats were used in this 16-week study. The animals were divided into three groups: the animals in group I served as the control group, while the animals in group II and group III were fed with hazelnut and canola oil, respectively. The testes of all rats were excised for histopathologic evaluation and immunohistochemical (IHC) evaluation with a standard method. Blood samples were obtained for determination of serum hormone levels.
No significant differences were noted with respect to behavior or weight among the three groups. Rats in the canola oil group (group III) had higher luteinizing hormone (LH) and higher testosterone levels than rats in the control group. Rats who received hazelnut oil (group II) exhibited similar findings, with these levels being higher than they were in the control group. No statistical differences were shown for histopathology or IHC testosterone antibody levels across all treatment groups. Conclussion: Canola oil was shown to have a greater effect on serum LH and testosterone compared to the control group and the group fed with hazelnut oil. Further investigation is required into how these oils affect serum hormone and sperm activity.
植物油在我们的日常饮食中占有重要地位。本研究从这一点出发,探讨菜籽油和榛子油对大鼠雄性生殖系统的影响。
在这项为期16周的研究中使用了30只雄性大鼠。动物被分为三组:第一组动物作为对照组,而第二组和第三组动物分别喂食榛子油和菜籽油。所有大鼠的睾丸均被切除,采用标准方法进行组织病理学评估和免疫组织化学(IHC)评估。采集血样以测定血清激素水平。
三组在行为或体重方面未观察到显著差异。菜籽油组(第三组)大鼠的促黄体生成素(LH)和睾酮水平高于对照组大鼠。接受榛子油的大鼠(第二组)也表现出类似结果,这些水平高于对照组。所有治疗组在组织病理学或IHC睾酮抗体水平方面均未显示出统计学差异。结论:与对照组和喂食榛子油的组相比,菜籽油对血清LH和睾酮的影响更大。需要进一步研究这些油如何影响血清激素和精子活性。
