reproductive system
• at 8 and 12 weeks of age
• aberrant spermatogenic cells are seen starting at 6 weeks of age
• few elongated spermatids are seen at 8 weeks of age
• by 12 weeks of age round spermatids are nearly absent
• testes size gradually decreases with age and by 12 weeks of age testes are significantly smaller compared to wild-type controls
• premature release of germ cells from the seminiferous epithelium
• males are infertile despite displaying normal mating behavior
