Abstract

The present experiments carried out on outbred male rats have demonstrated that the treatment with drinking mineral water in combination with microelements, zinc and silicon, significantly increased resistance of their cultured Sertoli cells to the stressful impact of a single immobilization event and promoted the development of intracelular adaptive and protective reactions. This response was manifest as a decrease in the level of the destructive processes and an enhancement of regenerative/hyperplastic reactions of mitochondria, ribosomes, and other intracellular organelles. Similar experiments with the use of sulfate mineral water revealed its less pronounced effect.
