For the study, testicular tissue from Swiss albino mice of prepubertal age group (2 weeks) was cryopreserved by slow freezing method either in control freezing medium (CFM; containing DMSO and FBS in DMEM/F12) or test freezing medium (TFM; containing soy lecithin, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylethanolamine, cholesterol, vitamin C, sodium selenite, DMSO and FBS in DMEM/F12 medium) and stored in liquid nitrogen for at least one week. The tissues were thawed and enzymatically digested to assess viability, DNA damage, and oxidative stress in the testicular cells. The results indicate that TFM significantly mitigated freeze-thaw-induced cell death, DNA damage, and lipid peroxidation compared to tissue cryopreserved in CFM. Further, a decrease in Cyt C, Caspase-3, and an increase in Gpx4 mRNA transcripts were observed in tissues frozen with TFM. Spermatogonial germ cells (SGCs) collected from tissues frozen with TFM exhibited higher cell survival and superior DNA integrity compared to those frozen in CFM. Proteomic analysis revealed that SGCs experienced a lower degree of freeze-thaw-induced damage when cryopreserved in TFM, as evident from an increase in the level of proteins involved in mitigating the heat stress response, transcriptional and translational machinery.

The anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative, and antioxidant properties of luteolin are some of its advantageous pharmacological characteristics. This research was designed to establish a MetS rat model and investigate the possible protective effect of luteolin on cardiovascular, hepatic, and metabolic changes in diet-induced metabolic syndrome in rats. Forty adult male albino rats were split into four groups: a negative control group, a group treated with luteolin, a group induced MetS (fed 20% fructose), and a group treated with luteolin (fed 20% fructose and given luteolin). Following the experiment after 8 weeks, biochemical, histological (light and electron), and immunohistochemistry analyses were performed on liver and heart tissues. Serum levels of cTnI, CK-MB, and LDH were significantly elevated in response to the cardiovascular effect of MetS. Furthermore, compared to the negative control group, the MetS group showed a marked increase in lipid peroxidation in the cardiac and hepatic tissues, as evidenced by elevated levels of MDA and a decline in the antioxidant defense system, as demonstrated by lower activities of GSH and SOD. The fatty liver-induced group exhibited histological alterations, including disrupted hepatic architecture, dilated and congested central veins, blood sinusoids, and portal veins. In addition to nuclear structural alterations, most hepatocytes displayed varying degrees of cytoplasmic vacuolation, mitochondrial alterations, and endoplasmic reticulum dilatation. These alterations were linked to inflammatory cellular infiltrations, collagen fiber deposition, active hepatic stellate cells, and scattered hypertrophied Kupffer cells, as demonstrated by electron microscopy and validated by immunohistochemical analysis. It is interesting to note that eosinophils were seen between the liver cells and in dilated blood sinusoids.
