Testicular dysfunction or damage is among the critical side effects of chemotherapeutic drugs like cisplatin. This study was mapped out to assess possible therapeutic effect eugenol on cisplatin-induced testicular damage. In this experimental study, a single dose cisplatin (15 mg/kg) given intraperitoneally. After 72 hr injection, rats were sacrificed and testis tissues removed. Tissues examined by biochemical, histopathological immunohistochemical methods. While tissue lipid peroxidation...
