Figure 6

Abundance of LHR in the testis after CPE treatment. The moderate immunostaining of LHR shown in the Leydig cells of 100 mg/kg (b) and 400 mg/kg (c) CPE-treated testis, whereas control showed mild immunostaining (a). The negative control section showed no immunostaining of LHR (d). The quantification LHR stained area showed a significant () increase in the staining area in the 400 mg/kg-treated group compared to the control and 100 mg/kg groups (e). Data are expressed as . Different alphabet letters above the bar graph indicate statistically significant differences between groups.
