Toxic effect of lead on fertility of inbred strain mice
Abstract
Males of inbred strains were orally given lead acetate water solution during 150 days. Changes were found in the structure of the seminiferous tubules and in spermatozoa. The pathological changes in Leydig cells brought about a decline in levels of androgens.
