Protective Effects of Lipoxin A4 in Testis Injury following Testicular Torsion and Detorsion in Rats

Figure 1

Changes of cytokines in testicular tissue. LXA4 treatment inhibits the increase of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-2 and TNF-α) and promotes the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-4 and IL-10) in testes after testicular torsion. Compared with other groups, ^∗𝑃<0.05 and ^∗∗𝑃<0.01. Compared with torsion or torsion/detorsion (T/D) group, ^#𝑃<0.05 and ^##𝑃<0.01.
