Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes of the weight of testis and epididymis,sperm numbers in cauda of epididymis,the structure of testis and the expression of 3?-HSD in rat testis after removing submandibular gland in rats.Methods On the day 14,28 and 42 after the operation,the testis and the epididymis were weighed and the epididymis sperm were counted.The changes of the testis were showed by HE stain.The changes of 3?-HSD expression were analyzed by immunohistochemistry.Results On the day 28 and 42 after the operation,the weight of body,testis and epididymis decreased markedly(P0.05),but increased apparently on the day 28(P
