Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated whether unbalanced diet in childhood affected erectile function in adulthood using young rats. First, we found that excessive fructose consumption in childhood induced erectile dysfunction in adulthood via the production of advanced glycation end products. Next, we examined whether the erectile dysfunction persisted after the stop of excessive fructose consumption and found that the erectile function recovered after the stop of excessive fructose consumption. Therefore, it is suggested that the excessive fructose consumption in childhood should be avoided to preserve erectile function in adulthood.
