Rat Epididymal Sperm Quantity, Quality, and Transit Time after Guanethidine-Induced Sympathectomy

Guanethidine, a chemical that selectively abolishes peripheral noradrenergic nerves, was used to investigate the role of sympathetic innervation in the maintenance of epididymal sperm quantity and quality. Four groups of 10 adult male rats each were treated daily for 21 days, by i.p. injections, wit...
