Stereological evaluation of Sertoli cell ontogeny during fetal and neonatal life in two diverse breeds of swine
1 Sept 2003
Abstract excerpt
Chinese Meishan (MS) boars have smaller testes due to fewer Sertoli cells compared with White Composite (WC) boars. The objective was to describe Sertoli cell development relative to circulating FSH concentrations in fetal and neonatal MS and WC boars. Testes and blood samples were collected on days 60, 75, 90 and 105 postcoitum (dpc) and 1, 7, 14 and 25 postpartum (dpp). One testis was immunostained for GATA4 or...
