Abstract :

Several studies based on thousands of years of medicinal plant (Malva Sylvestris) is done. Species (Malvasilvestris L.), also known as panirak (Malvaceae), a special area is wet. In traditional medicine to treat cough, sore throat, stomach and used. The major components of them are fatty acids, antioxidants, flavonoids, vitamins, and terpenes and minerals. Because the contents of various antioxidants in the sperm cytoplasm and the amount of antioxidants more in sperm there, spermatozoa against oxidative stress (OS) due to the high concentration of active derivatives of oxygen (ROS) and lipid peroxidation foundation (LPO) to protect it. This natural antioxidant capacity in infertile patients is very low. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of leaf extracts of Mallow in the sperm and spermatogenesis. In this study, 12 adult male rats race of c- 57 were selected. The mice weighing were approximately 30-35 g and divided to two groups of six. The mice were divided into two groups: the experimental group treated with hydro-alcoholic extracts of Mallow leaves, the concentration of 2000mg / kg and the control group receiving ionized water. Gavage for 14 days with oral gavage needle was given. On the fifteenth day the rats were dissected and testes were collected and then processed pathology was examined. The results showed that the morphology of the cells changed and the number of primary spermatocytes and sperm cells (P ر
