Biochemical analysis of rat testis and epididymis after cyproterone acetate treatment

Male rats were treated with cyproterone acetate (10 mg/day/rat) for 13, 26 and 39 days. A marked decrease in proteins, nucleic acid and phospholipid content was recorded in testis and epididymis after CA treatment. However, a significant increase in glycogen and cholesterol content in testis and epididymis was observed after CA treatment.
