Effects of Chinese Medicine on the Morphology of the Testis of Rats Infected by Ureaplasma Urealyticum
Abstract：Objective:This study abserved the effects of chinese medicine on the morphology of the testis of rats infected by Ureaplasma Urealyticum(U.U.).Methods:Rats were inoculated the U.U.(10５ccU/ml) by injecting broth into the urinary bladder following laparectomy.The testis of rats were detected U.U..U.U.were obtained by PCR.The testis were observed with light microscope.Results:8 positive U.U.rats were tested out in control group,the tested rate is 66.7%;2 positive U.U.rats were tested out in chinese medicine group,the tested rate is 16.7%;no one was tested out in normal group,the weight of testis in control group in lower than that in normal group (P<0.01)，but the weight of testis in chinese medicine group is no were changed than that in normal group (P>0.05);The testis seminiferous tubules in normal group were normal,and germ cells' array was regular,and sperms could be often seen in the tubules.The changed seminiferous tubules,and the reduced germ cells in some area could be seen under light microscope in control group,but only few of the changed seminiferous tubules or the reduced germ cells could be seen in chinese medicine group.Conelusion:It has been shown that U.U.interfere with spermatogenesis.U.U.might be one of the causes of male infertility.
