Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Rue (RE), a medicinal herb having anti-androgenic characteristic on the sexuality of guppy males. In total, 120 males were selected randomly, acclimated and divided equally into four groups that received the RE ethanolic extract at 0, 1, 10 and 100 mg.kg-1, respectively for 30 days. The findings revealed that 100 mg.kg-1 had significantly lower whole-body testosterone levels than control. Furthermore, males administered RE at all doses had a significantly lower gonopodial index than the control group. Whereas, administration of RE at 10 and 100 mg.kg-1 causes a lowering in sperm counts than the control group. Regarding with histopathological examination, the testes of control males were well-differentiated with an increase in spermatozeugmata proportion at all spermatogenesis stages with a significant proportion of cystic structures containing spermatozoa. On the other hand, RE-fed animals showed a dose-dependent decrease in spermatozeugmata and an increase in spermatocytes' number of ducts, indicating the role of RE in reducing the development of guppy’s spermatogenesis. In conclusion, Rue can impact the sexual parameters of adult guppy males by confirming the anti-androgenic properties of RE.

芸香(Ruta graveolens L.)对虹鳟鱼(Poecilia reticulata Peters,1859 年)精子发生的抑制特性
本研究旨在探讨具有抗雄激素特性的药草芸香(Rue)对雄性谷斑鱼性欲的影响。研究随机选取了120条雄鱼,将其平均分为四组,分别接受0、1、10和100 mg.kg-1的RE乙醇提取物,为期30天。研究结果显示,100 毫克/千克-1 的全身睾酮水平明显低于对照组。此外,服用所有剂量 RE 的雄性动物的性腺指数都明显低于对照组。而 10 毫克和 100 毫克/千克的 RE 会导致精子数量低于对照组。在组织病理学检查方面,对照组雄性动物的睾丸分化良好,在精子发生的各个阶段,精子细胞的比例都有所增加,含有精子的囊性结构所占比例很大。另一方面,饲喂 RE 的动物的精原细胞数量呈剂量依赖性减少,而精子细胞的导管数量增加,这表明 RE 在减少河豚精子发生过程中发挥了作用。总之,芸苔素可通过证实 RE 的抗雄激素特性来影响成年雄性河豚的性参数。
