Oxidative Stress Disrupted Prepubertal Rat Testicular Development after Xenotransplantation

Abstract: In the past two decades, testicular tissue grafting and xenografting have been well established, with the production of fertilization-competent sperm in some studies. However, few studies have been carried out to observe the development of grafted prepubertal testicular tissue of rats and compare the biological differences between in situ testis and grafted testis. In this study, we established the prepubertal testicular tissue xenografting model using a 22-day-old rat and evaluated certain parameters, includi… Show more

“…More importantly, the oxidative injuries resulted from oxidation and antioxidant imbalance would also play a role in the formation of vacuoles and thin seminiferous epithelium. Ma reported the phenomenon of apparent vacuoles and oxidative damages after xenotransplantation of prepubertal rat testicular tissue [ 21 ]. Even though some spermatids could be identified in the xenografted testes under fluorescence microscope, there was few spermatids could be observed directly under TEM, which would be related to the vacuolation of Sertoli cells and location of sampling.…”

“…Testicular histopathology was assessed by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining as previously described ( Ma et al, 2021 ). Briefly, following fixation in Bouin’s solution for 6 h, testes were transferred to ethanol and xylene, embedded in paraffin, and sectioned at a thickness of 5 μm.…”
