1 N-acetylcysteine alleviates fluoride-induced testicular apoptosis by modulating IRE1alpha/JNK signaling and nuclear Nrf2 activation. Acetylcysteine mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 Rattus norvegicus
2 Simultaneously, NAC pretreatment downregulated XBP1 splicing, reduced JNK phosphorylation and further blocked cleavage of caspase-3, all these might contribute to the inhibition of testicular cell apoptosis. Acetylcysteine mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 Rattus norvegicus
3 Collectively, the present results suggested that prolonged administration of NAC preserved testicular function and normalized sex hormonal disruption induced by NaF via the inhibition of Nrf2-associated oxidative damage and Ire1alpha-JNK-mediated apoptosis in rat testis. Acetylcysteine mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 Rattus norvegicus
