reproductive system
• no normal sperm flagella are seen; sperm show absent flagella, short, coiled, bent and irregular-caliber flagella
• however, no differences in seminiferous tubule structure or spermatogenic cells are seen
|
• outer dense fibers are chaotically scattered
|
• microtubule doublets are chaotically scattered
|
• testicular and epididymal spermatozoa exhibit short flagella
|
• 89.5% of sperm heads are abnormal, with abnormal head shape and acrosome
