Resveratrol and dimethyl fumarate ameliorate testicular dysfunction caused by chronic unpredictable mild stress-induced depression in rats.

In conclusion, our study reveals that resveratrol or DMF exert profound testicular protective effects in CUMS rats that are mediated in part by suppressing oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis leading to the upregulation of serum testosterone levels, and testicular StAR, CYP450scc, c-kit and β-catenin levels.
