This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of IR-61,a novel mitochondrial heptamethine cyanine dye with antioxidant effects,on diabetes mellitus-induced erectile dysfunction(DMED).Eight-week-old male Sprague-...
In this study, we investigated the effects of a combination of Ginkgo biloba extracts (GBE) and phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors on the muscular tone of the corpus cavernosum and potassium channel activ...
Heavy alcohol consumption is associated with an increased risk of erectile dysfunction (ED); however, the acute effects of ethanol (EtOH) on penile tissue are not fully understood. We sought to investigate the eff...
