Expression of mRNA for NAIP (a) and survivin (b) (mean ± SEM of seven animals) in specimens of left testis of sham-operated rats and varicocele rats treated with vehicle (1 mL/kg, i.p.), PDRN (8 mg/kg, i.p.), DMPX (0.1 mg/kg, i.p.) plus PDRN (8 mg/kg, i.p.), varicocelectomy alone, or varicocelectomy plus PDRN (8 mg/kg, i.p.). ^# versus varicocele + vehicle;   versus sham; versus varicocele + PDRN.
