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

Figure 8

Photomicrographs of a semithin section of adult rat tests of I/R group showing (a) degenerated spermatogonia (g) with rarefied or vacuolated cytoplasm. There is incoherence of the degenerated primary spermatocytes (P) with pyknotic nuclei, loss of regular arrangement of round spermatids (R), and scanty elongated spermatids (↑) (×1000). (b) The majority of Leydig cells have pyknotic nuclei (↑) around the blood vessel (BV) (×1000).
