The Effects of Diplotaenia Turcica Root Extract on Sperm Parameters and Reproductive Hormones in Streptozotocin Induced Diabetic Rats

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the effects of Diplotaenia turcica root extract on sperm parameters and reproductive hormones in streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats. The study was performed on a total of 42 male rats divided into 6 groups of equal numbers. Single-dose physiological saline was administrated intraperitoneally to Group 1. STZ 45 mg/kg was administered intraperitoneally to Group 2. Diplotaenia turcica root extract 100 mg/kg was administrated through gastric gavage for 28 days to Group 3. Diplotaenia turcica root extract 200 mg/kg was administrated through gastric gavage for 28 days to Group 4. STZ 45 mg/kg administrated intraperitoneally to Group 5. In addition, Diplotaenia turcica root extract 100 mg/kg was administrated through gastric gavage for 28 days. STZ 45 mg/kg administrated intraperitoneally to Group 6. Also, Diplotaenia turcica root extract 200 mg/kg was administrated through gastric gavage for 28 days. Reproductive hormones and sperm parameters were analyzed. In Group 2, it was determined that sperm motility and density and reproductive hormone values were significantly lower when compared to group 1, and the abnormal sperm rate was significantly higher when compared to Group 1. Testosterone levels in Groups 3 and 4 were significantly higher than Groups 2, 5, and 6. It was determined that the 100 mg/kg dose of Diplotaenia turcica root extract, which is given also to the diabetic group, creates an improvement in sperm parameters and the hormone testosterone, but the 200 mg/kg dose does not have the same effect. As a result, we can recommend the 100 mg/kg dose of Diplotaenia turcica root extract in patients with diabetes.
