Adult testicular enlargement induced by neonatal hypothyroidism is accompanied by increased Sertoli and germ cell numbers

1993-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Our previous studies have shown that transient neonatal hypothyroidism, induced by treatment with the reversible goitrogen 6-propyl-2-thiouracil (PTU), increases testicular size and daily sperm production in the adult rat by up to 82% and 136%, respectively. The objective of the present study was to examine morphological and functional changes in adult seminiferous tubules associated with PTU-induced increases in...
