Diethylstilbestrol induces oxidative DNA damage, resulting in apoptosis of spermatogonial stem cells in vitro
Highlights • Exposure of the spermatogonial stem cells to DES produced significant increases in superoxide anion, DNA damage and apoptosis. • The male reproductive system can be disrupted by foetal exposure to DES. • The flavonoid quercetin reduced intracellular superoxide anions induced by DES....
