This study was performed to investigate the effect of calliandra honey (Calliandra sp.) on the number of sertoli cells in malnourished male albino rats. A total of 24 male rats were divided into four groups, i.e. (K) without treatment, (P0) fasted, (P1 and P2) respectively fasted and administered honey concentrations of 30% and 50% for 10 days after fasting. The results showed that administration calliandra honey with a concentration of 30% and 50% significantly increased the number of sertoli cells. It can be concluded that administration calliandra honey can have a positive effect on malnourished male rats, especially in improving the number of sertoli cells.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
