Results and discussion

Results: P0 (first parental generation)

Effect levels (P0)

Dose descriptor:
other: Androgen Receptor Binding
Effect level:
other: negative
Based on:
test mat.
Sex:
male/female
Basis for effect level:
other: roles in male reproductive development and function and in maintaining female fertility through key roles in the regulation of follicle health, development, and ovulation
Remarks on result:
other: The QSAR calculation showed a negative results for reproductive toxicity based on androgen receptor binding. An effect level is not necessary due to high intake through food of this essential nutrient.

Results: F1 generation

Overall reproductive toxicity

Reproductive effects observed:
no

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Based on the QSAR model Androgen Receptor Binding as the endpoint for reproductive toxicity showed a negative result for Lysine-HCl.
Executive summary:

The Androgen Receptor Antagonism model is suitable for the prediction of reproductive toxicity. The androgen receptor (AR) has defining roles in male reproductive development and function as well as in regulating follicle development and ovulation (Walters K.A., Allan C.M., Handelsman D.J., 2008, BIOLOGY OF REPRODUCTION 78, 380–389).


Therefore, this QSAR prediction together with all available data showed no evidence of reproductive toxicity of L-lysine-HCl.
