Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress (ER Stress) and Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) Occur in a Rat Varicocele Testis Model

<div>Images of chromomycin A3 (CMA3) and aniline blue (AB) staining for assessment of sperm protamine deficiency and persistent histone, respectively. (a) Sperm with normal protamine content or CMA3 negative, I-III: sperm with different intensities of protamine deficiency or CMA3 positive. (b) Sperm with normal persistent histone or AB negative, I-III: sperm with different degrees of abnormal persistent histone (AB+ and AB++).</div>
