Study of protective role for aqueous extract of cyperus esculentus L.on some parameters of physiological and histological for testes in rabbit

Abstract

The study involved fifteen health adult male rabbit white (Lepus arcticus), the average weight (1.500-1.600) K.g. and age 8 month to one year old . The rabbits were divided to fife group , the first group was treated with lead acetate (1.5)ml daily and for amount , the second group was treatment aqueous extract of cyperus esculentus tubers (4.5) ml and lead acetate (1.5) ml day after another day for amonth the third group was control treated with normal salin . the study amied to determine the effect of cyperus esculents extraet on the some level of testosterone hormone , leutenizing hormone follicale stimulating hormone and sperm count and mean diameter of seminiferous tubules , the height of the germinal epithelinm and lumen of semini ferrous , spermaltogenia , primary spermatocytes spermatids and sertoli cells . The result of the present study showed :-Significat decrease (p <0.05 ) in mean leval of testosterons , sperm count , LH and FSH hormones and in mean diameter of seminiferous tubules height of the germinal epithelium , spermatogonia , primary spermato cytes , spermatids and sertoli cell in lead acetate group compared with control group while significant increase (p < 0.05) look in mean diameter in lumen of seminiferous tubules compared with control group additionally significant increase (p< 0.05) appear in mean level of testosterons , sperm count ,LH , FSH hormones and in mean diameter in seminiferous tubules, hight of the germinal epithelium spermatogonia , primary spermatocytes , spermatids and sertoli cell in the aqueous extract of cyperus esculentus group compared with control group on the other no significant (p>0.05) in mean diameter of lumean of seminiferous tubules compared with control group .
