In Utero and Lactational Exposure of F1 Adult Pups to Ethanol and Nicotine: Alteration of The Reproductive System and Epigenetic Modifying Enzymes of Sperm Cells?
Abstract:Co-use of alcohol and nicotine is a common habit which could affect reproductive system. The present study was designed to investigate the effect of in-utero and lactational exposure of offspring to alcohol, nicotine, and combinations on the reproductive system and epigenetic alterations of male gamete. Pregnant mice and lactating NMRI pups randomly received nicotine, ethanol, and combinations during gestational days 1 until weaning. Sperm and testes were collected on postnatal day 90 for further experiments. … Show more
