The Effect of an Extract and Fractions of Date Pits on Some Plasma Constituents, Reproductive Hormones, and Testicular Histology in Male Mice

<div>Photomicrograph of mice’s testis (Bar = 100 <i>μ</i>m; Stain: HPAS); (A–D) groups 1–4, showing normal histological structures of the seminiferous tubule, with a complete spermatogenesis process (double arrow), mature Sertoli cells (arrows), intact Leydig cells (arrowheads), and an appropriate percentage of mature spermatozoa (asterisks) (corresponds to grade I Cosentino grading classifications). (a) control; (b) lyophilized extract; (c) nonpolar fraction extract; and (d) polar fraction extract.</div>
