ABSTRACT
Impact of hyperprolactinaemia, induced by daily injection of ovine prolactin (250 micrograms/kg body weight, ip for 30 days) on testicular lipids was studied in M. radiata. Wet weights of testis and accessory sex organs decreased in hyperprolactinaemic monkeys. Even though total lipids in the testis did not show any significant change, total cholesterol and total glyceride glycerol decreased. While all fractions of testicular neutral lipids showed a perceptible decrease, phosphatidic acid, phosphatidyl ethanolamine and phosphatidyl choline increased in hyperprolactinaemic monkeys. Hyperprolactinaemia appears to influence male fertility by altering the composition of testicular neutral lipids and phospholipids.
