Abstract

 Background: Some medicinal plants with their antioxidant properties have protective effects on sperm parameters and neutralize the harmful effects of lead exposure.Objectives: The present study aimed to determine the effects of MELISSA on sperm parameters and SPERMATOGENESIS quality in adult rats exposed to lead.Methods: This animal experimental study was conducted on 45 male Wistar rats weighing 180±20 g, which were allocated randomly into five groups (n=9): distilled water gavages (control) (0.5 ml); intraperitoneal distilled water (i.p. control) (0.5 ml); MELISSA (100 mg/kg/bw); LEAD ACETATE (10 mg/kg/bw); and LEAD ACETATE (10 mg/kg/bw) plus MELISSA (100 mg/kg/bw). After a 30-day treatment, the animals were sacrificed. Sperm parameters (count, motility, morphology, and chromatins assay) and weighing of the epididymis and testis were performed.Results: The results showed that in the LEAD ACETATE plus MELISSA group, epididymis weight (0.37gr vs.0.32gr), testis weight (1.40 vs.1.28g), sperm motility (4.44% vs.33.2 % (, and viable sperm (90 vs.50) were higher than the lead group. However, testicular weight, normal morphology, and DNA percentage showed insignificant differences among the study groups (P>0.05).Conclusions: The results of the present study indicate the protective effects of MELISSA officinalis on some sperm parameters and SPERMATOGENESIS quality in rats exposed to lead.
