Cadmium(Cd) is a serious environmental and occupational contaminant that represents a serious health hazard to humans and other animals. Reproductive health problems have been reported in men exposed to Cd. Testicular damage is one of the deleterious effects due to Cd exposure. Cd-induced testicular toxicity is mediated through oxidative stress, inflammation, testosterone inhibition and apoptosis. Thus, the present study was performed to assess the possible protective role of infliximab (IFX), anti-TNFα agent, against Cd-induced testicular damage and spermiotoxicity in rats. The rats were randomly allotted into six experimental groups: control, Cd sulphate treated, Cd sulphate treated with infliximab (5 mg/kg), Cd sulphate with infliximab (7 mg/kg), infliximab alone (5 mg/kg), and infliximab alone (7 mg/kg). The control group received saline. To induce testicular damage, Cd sulphate (1.5 mg/100 gm body weight/day) was dissolved in normal saline and orally administrated for 3 consecutive weeks. The rats in infliximab-treated groups were given a weekly dose of 5 mg/kg/week or 7 mg/kg/week of infliximab intraperitoneally. In the current study Cd exposure reduced sperm count, markers of testicular function, sperm motility as well as gene expression of testicular 3β-HSD and 17β-HSD and serum testosterone level. Additionally, it increased testicular oxidative stress, inflammatory and apoptotic markers. The histopathologic studies supported the biochemical findings. Treatment with infliximab significantly attenuated Cd-induced injury verified by the restoration of testicular architecture, enhancement of steroidogenesis, preservation of spermatogenesis, modulation of the inflammatory reaction along with suppression of oxidative stress and apoptosis. It was concluded that infliximab, through its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects, represents a potential therapeutic option to protect the testicular tissue from the detrimental effects of Cd.
