Abstract
Bilateral cryptorchidism was induced surgically in albino rats and pattern of protein profiles was studied in reproductive organs. Cryptorchidism activated tissue proteolysis leading to overall degradation in soluble and structural protein fractions and in amino acids leading to prevalence of negative nitrogen balance in the reproductive organs. The testicular hypoalbuminic and hypoglobulinic conditions seem to be responsible for oligo-astheno-spermia associated with cryptorchidism.Keywords
