Testis gene expression analysis of cholesterol biosynthesis, cholesterol transport, testosterone and estradiol biosynthesis, and growth hormone (GH)-related genes
Panels A-D show real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis of cholesterol biosynthesis (Panel A), cholesterol transport (Panel B), testosterone and estradiol biosynthesis (Panel C), and GH and IGF1 signaling-related genes (Panel D) in whole testes of untreated and treated mice at 15 days post-initial exposure. Results are given as mean ± standard errors of means (SEMs). Statistical analysis was performed using Student’s t-test. n=6; **P<0.05.
