Caption Gross and histological analysis of postnatal testes. (A) Gross analysis of testes from 7 week old littermates. (B-M) Histological analysis of Asz1tm1Zuk/Asz1+ (+/-) and Asz1tm1Zuk/Asz1tm1Zuk (-/-) mice. (M) is a higher power magnification of (L) to show the lack of germ cells attached to the base of the tubule and sloughing germ cells in the lumen. G, spermatogonia; L, leptotene spermatocytes; M, meiotically dividing spermatocytes; Mit, mitotically dividing spermatogonia; P, pachytene spermatocytes; PL, preleptotene spermatocytes; Ser, Sertoli cells; Z, zygotene spermatocytes; dying spermatocytes with compact chromatin (red arrowhead); and with diffuse chromatin (open arrowhead); sloughing germ cells (black arrowheads). [Scale bars: 100 um (B-C), 20 um (D-K).]
