Ginkgo Biloba Ameliorates Subfertility Induced by Testicular Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Adult Wistar Rats: A Possible New Mitochondrial Mechanism

Figure 6

Photomicrographs of a semithin section of adult rat tests of ischemia only group showing (a) part of seminiferous tubule presenting degenerated spermatogonia (g) and pyknosis (), karyolysis (▲) of some primary spermatocytes (P), round spermatids (R), and apparently normal Sertoli cells nuclei (S) (×1000). (b) Intercellular ( ) and intracellular vacuoles (▲) in the primary spermatocytes (P) and round spermatids (R) (×1000). (c) Ill-defined cell membrane and degenerated cytoplasm are observed together with pyknotic nuclei of some Leydig cells () arranged around blood vessel (BV) (×1000).
