Reduced pachytene stage of primary spermatocyte count as effect of immobilisation stress in adult swiss albino mice-histological study
Journal Title: Applied Physiology and Anatomy Digest - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
In modern era of urbanisation stress has became inevitable part of human life. It affects all age groups and both sexes .Stress affects all systems of body including reproductive system. Cannon (1990) was one of the first research workers who postulated that events disrupting homeostasis are stressful and may result in disease. Reproductive failure (infertility) in human newly married couples is becoming an ever rising problem now days. Increased stress because of urbanisation has been pointed out as the causative factor but there is very little documentation on this account. Immobilisation is most commonly used by other workers as stress inducer in (Bajkova 1988 Bharihoke et al 2000) and is less harmful to animals and it is mixed type of stress. So in order to study whether stress of urbanisation is one of the causes affecting process spermatogenesis and to find out structural and functional changes in testis by this stress, we decided to study effect of immobilisation stress on spermatogenesis of mice.
