Phthalate esters (PAE) are plasticizers in polyvinyl chloride plastics used, for example, in package material for medical solutions. PAE exposure is associated with testicular damage that primarily affects Sertoli cells, and is concomitant with leukocyte infiltration into the testicular interstitium.

Treatment of young male rats with dipentyl phthalate (DPP) produced significant decreases in testicular cytochrome P-450, cytochrome P-450 dependent microsomal steroidogenic enzymes (17 alpha-hydroxylase, 17-20 lyase) and in the maximal binding of a natural substrate (progesterone) to testis microsomes.

Di-n-pentyl phthalate (DPP) is used mainly as a plasticizer in nitrocellulose. At high doses, DPP acts as a potent testicular toxicant in rats. We administered a single oral dose of 500 mg kg(-1)bw of DPP to adult female Sprague-Dawley rats

Acute effects of CDB-4022 on testicular ultrastructure were determined. Rats were treated orally with vehicle or a maximally effective single dose of CDB-4022 or Di-n-pentylphthalate (DPP). Preserved testes were processed for transmission electron microscopy. Sertoli and germ cells of vehicle-treated
