VASA expression in recipient mouse testes.(A-F) Immunohistochemistry revealed VASA expression in mouse testes transplanted without SSCs (A) or with SSCs that were transfected with miRNA mimic control (B), or miRNA-20 mimic (C), or miRNA-106a mimics (D), or miRNA-20 inhibitor (E), or miRNA-106a inhibitor (F). Scale bars = 20μm. (G) Number of tubule cross sections with full spermatogenesis in recipient mouse testes without SSC transplantation, or from transplantation of SSCs with miRNA mimic control, or miRNA inhibitor control, or miRNA-20 mimic, or miRNA-106a mimic, or miRNA-20 inhibitor, or miRNA-106a inhibitor. Compared to miRNA mimic control, “*” indicated a significant difference (P <0.05).
