Various docetaxel (DTX)-loaded nanoparticle delivery systems have been designed to enhance the solubility and pharmacological effects of DTX. However, the toxicity changes of these nano-modified DTX (nano-DTX) are not yet clear enough. Herein, to compare the reproductive toxicity between conventional DTX and nano-DTX, we performed sperm toxicity test in mice, and fertility and early embryo-fetal developmental toxicity test in rats. It was found that DTX severely repressed spermatogenesis and sperm motility, and dramatically increased sperm abnormality in mice and rats. Moreover, DTX significantly decreased copulation, conception and fertility indexes in rats, and no positive pregnant female rat was obtained after treatment with DTX. However, nano-DTX significantly reduced DTX-induced toxicity to sperm. Most importantly, nano-DTX obviously converted DTX-induced fertility and early embryo-fetal developmental toxicity. Furthermore, organ weights and histopathology examination revealed DTX, but not nano-DTX, significantly decreased testis and epididymis weights, and induced obvious histopathological atrophy of testes and epididymides in rats. Further studies indicated that changed activity of lactate dehydrogenase C4 (LDH-C4) in rodents testes was mainly responsible for the above observations. These results strongly support the idea that DTX-loaded nanoformulations have the potential to overcome the reproductive toxicity of DTX.

Comprehensive Study

Hexachlorobenzene (HCB), a persistent and mobile organochlorine pesticide, occurs in environment. HCB has been shown to be present in human follicular fluid. An objective of the present report, which is part of a comprehensive study on reproductive toxicity of HCB, was to determine the cytologic effects of the compound on ovarian follicles in a primate model.Materials and Methods. Eight Cynomolgus monkeys were housed under controlled conditions at Animal facility of Health and Welfare, Ottawa. Animals were orally administered gelatin capsules containing HCB mixed with glucose in daily dosages of 0.0 or 10 mg/kg b.w. for 90 days; the former was the control group. On the menstrual period following completion of dosing, the monkeys underwent an induction cycle of superovulation. At necropsy, one-half of an ovary from each animal was diced into ca. 2- to 3-mm cubed specimens that were fixed by immersion in 2.5% glutaraldehyde in 0.1 M cacodylate buffer (pH 7.3). Subsequent procedures followed to obtain thin sections that were examined in a Hitachi H-7000 electron microscope have been described earlier.
