Physiological and biochemical changes after boldenone injection in adult rabbits

Abstract: Boldenone (BOL) is an androgenic steroid that improves the growth and food conversion in food-producing animals. In most countries worldwide, this anabolic steroid is forbidden for human uses and meat production as it was developed for veterinary use. Recently, BOL is used by bodybuilders in both off season and pre-contest, where it is well known for increasing vascularity while preparing for a bodybuilding contest. The present study was designed to investigate the physiological and biochemical changes in rabb… Show more

“…Anabolic-androgenic steroids are defined as synthetic derivatives of the endogenous sex hormone testosterone that plays a key role in the development of male reproductive tissue (such as the testis and prostate) as well as in puberty, sexual behavior, spermatogenesis and plays promoting secondary sexual characteristics such as increased muscle, bone mass and hair growth (Mitchell et al, 2009;Balthazart, Ball, 2010;Mohammed et al, 2016). Anabolic steroids are forbidden for meat production and human use in KAS, and most countries worldwide due to their undesirable effects included blood and cardiovascular disorders (Santos et al, 2006;Tousson et al, 2016;Waljee et al, 2016), liver dysfunction (Van Amsterdam et al, 2010;Barakat et al, 2015), kidney disease (Barakat et al, 2015), tendon damage (Battista, Combs, Warne, 2003), testicular problems (Tousson et al, 2012;El-Masry et al, 2017), psychiatric and behavioural disorders in both sexes (Salas-Ramirez, Montalto, Sisk, 2010), as well as other problems on the human body (Saleh, Waded, 2014).…”
