Abstract excerpt
Oxidative stress (OS) mechanisms are speculated to play a significant role in nickel-induced toxic effects and their carcinogenic potency. Although nickel-induced oxidative damage in somatic tissues is well demonstrated, evidence of the involvement of a similar mechanism(s) in nickel-induced testicular dysfunction and associated genotoxic effects is scarce. Hence, the present study aimed to investigate the...
