Pathology study of radiation injury in the rat testes

Abstract

By applying the dynamics of the seminiferous epithelium and transmission electron microscopy technique and experiment was completed to observe the changes of seminiferous epithelium, tunica propria enveloping seminiferous tubules and AKP (Alkaline Phosphatase) in the tunica propria of rats after they were irradiated with 4 Gy whole-body {sup 60}Co gamma radiation. The injured features of spermatogenic cells, the sensitivity of AKP in the tunica propria to irradiation and the relationship of AKP within tunica propria with seminiferous epithelium during injuring and repairing process are discussed. The results show that the differentiated spermatogonia are the most sensitive to irradiation. After 4 Gy whole-body {sup 60}Co {gamma}-radiation the injured seminiferous epithelium can be recovered and the survived radiation-resistant stem spermatogonia are the sole origin for repairing the seminiferous epithelium. The ultrastructure of sertoli cells changes with the diminution of spermatogenic cells. The tunica propria becomes thicker and folded after irradiation. The AKP within the tunica propria can resist higher dose. After 12 days of irradiation the AKP reactions in tunica propria is considerably decreased, the recovery of AKP reactions is earlier than seminiferous epithelium.
