Research Abstract |
In this study, we investigated the mechanism for the inhibitory effect of AhR agonist(BaP) on spermatogenesis in vivo. BaP showed high AhR agonist activity and weak inhibitory effect on spermatogenesis in vivo analysis. The inhibitory effect of BaP on spermatogenesis was abolished by co-treatment with an AhR antagonist, a-naphthoflavone. These results suggest that AhR is involved in the inhibition of spermatogenesis by BaP.
