Colchicine Disrupts the Cytoskeleton of Rat Testis Seminiferous Epithelium in a Stage-Dependent Manner1
1 Jan 1993
Abstract excerpt
Sertoli cell microtubules play an important role in the process of spermatogenesis. We investigated the effects of colchicine, a microtubule-disrupting agent, on the seminiferous epithelium. Rats were injected intratesticularly with 0.004-40 micrograms colchicine/testis. Colchicine had a dose-related effect on seminiferous tubule fluid secretion and completely blocked secretion at a dose of 40 micrograms...
