Chromogenic immunohistochemistry of anti-AQP-7 antibody in the initial part (DI), middle part (DM) and ampullary part of ductus deferens (DA). (A,E,I): negative control of anti-AQP-7 antibody in DI, DM and DA during rutting season; (C,G,K): positive reaction of AQP-7 in DI, DM and DA of ductus deferens during rutting season shows very intense positivity of AQP-7. (B,F,J): negative control of AQP-7 in DI, DM and DA of ductus deferens during non-rutting season; (D,H): positive reaction of AQP-7 in DI and DM of ductus deferens during non-rutting season shows weak positivity of AQP-7. (L): positive reaction of AQP-7 in the ampullary part of ductus deferens during non-rutting season shows moderate positivity of the columnar cell. AQP-7 was stained by DAB/chromogen and counter-stained with hematoxylin under magnification power 40×.
