Single cell suspensions were prepared from the testes of neonatal MT-lacZ transgenic rats (0–4 dpp) and stained with the β-galactosidase substrate, X-Gal. Blue cells (gonocytes) were morphologically classified as pseudopod, round, or other.
Sum of pseudopod, round, and other gonocytes.
Results are combined from six replicate experiments, encompassing 0–4 dpp.
