Abstract

Background: The possible effects of EMF generated by mobile phones on reproductive functions have been discussed recently. Aim of the work: Studing the structural and functional changes in the testes of different age groups of albino rats post exposure to cellular phone radiation and the possible protective effect of avocado extract. Material and Methods: The present study was carried out on 50 healthy albino rats of different age groups. The rats were divided into 5 groups, each include 3 subgroups according to age. Results: EMF exposed rats showed testicular alterations which were ameliorated by using avocado extract. Conclusion: EMF emitted form cellular phones has potential adverse effects on the male reproductive functions. Avocado Pear has a protective role against radiation-induced damage in testicles by its antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects.
