Abstract
In conclusion, endosulfan decreases rat testes weight, and inhibits spermatogenesis and steroidogenesis. It induces oxidative stress and apoptosis by possible mechanisms of both mitochondria and non-mitochondria pathways. These data provide insight into the mode of action of endosulfan-induced toxicity and the beneficial role provided by taurine to counteract endosulfan-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in rat testis.
