Testicular toxicity following chronic codeine administration is via oxidative DNA damage and up-regulation of NO/TNF-α and caspase 3 activities
BACKGROUND: Codeine, a 3-methylmorphine, and other related opioids have been implicated in androgen suppression, although the associated mechanisms remain unclear. AIM: Therefore, the objective of the current study was to elucidate the in vivo molecular mechanisms underlying codeine-induced androgen...
