The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of low
intensity laser irradiation on the antioxidant defense system in testis of
rats The results showed significant increase in the level of lipid peroxide product (malondialdehyde) and significant decrease in the antioxidant defense system (glutathione and glutathione peroxidase) after one and eight days post-laser irradiation of rat testis. Following exposure to He-Ne laser, the total lipids and cholesterol were increased in testis tissue. On the other hand, plasma male sex hormone (testosterone) and lactate dehydrogenase were increased. It is advised to use serotonin as a protector before exposure to He-Ne laser.
