Investigation of the Underlying Mechanism of Depression on Male Infertility: A Bioinformatics and Experimental Research Study

Figure 6

HE staining of testis tissues. Seminiferous tubules were closely arranged in control tissues, and the basement membrane and interstitium were clearly and uniformly demarcated. The arrangement of spermatogonia and spermatocytes at all levels was ordered (Arrows 1-6). The tubules were sparsely arranged, and the interstitium was edematous in model tissues. Tubule epithelium was separated from the interstitium, and tubules had a cavernous structure. All levels of spermatogonia were reduced in number, and the interstitial cells were hyperplastic. (Arrows 7-12).
