Abstract
Tributyltin (TBT) is also recognized as an endocrine disrupter. Organotin compounds such as TBT are widely used as agricultural biocides, and for antifouling paint of ship bottoms and of fishing nets. In this study, we investigated the role of nur 77 in induction of apoptosis in TBT-induced leydig cells.(omitted)
