Özet

The effects of VIP on testicular tissue histamine level of stressed (immobilization and cold) rats were investigated. Sixteen Sprague-Dawley adult male rats were used and divided into three groups. Testicular tissue histamine was measured by HPLC. Stress caused a significant increase in the testicular tissue histamine level. VIP treatment decreased histamine to baseline.
