Effects of elephant garlic (Allium ampeloprasum) extract on testosterone synthesis in TM3 Leydig cells

Abstract: This work investigated the effects of Allium ampeloprasum extract (AME) on testosterone synthesis in TM3 Leydig cells under hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced oxidative stress. AME showed no increment of cell proliferation in the oxidatively stressed cells. Testosterone level lowered when the cells were treated with H2O2, but increased in the presence of AME. To determine the effect of AME on the … Show more

“…Male menopause is mainly caused by a decrease in testosterone and body aging, resulting from abnormal changes in the endocrine system [1,2]. Male menopausal symptoms include not only sexual function decline closely related to the decrease in testosterone but also decrease in sperm production, increase in insulin resistance, increase in visceral fat, decrease in physical function due to decrease in muscle mass and bone density, decrease in cognitive ability and spatial perception, fatigue, nervousness, and depression [3,4]. The male menopausal symptoms have a considerable negative impact on the health-related quality of life, affecting physical, mental, and social aspects in men.…”
