EFFECTS OF TESTOSTERONE AND FOLLICLE-STIMULATING HORMONE ON SPERMATOGENESIS IN ADULT MICE DURING TREATMENT WITH OESTRADIOL

A. G. DAVIES, M. COUROT and P. GRESHAM

Adult male mice were treated with oestradiol for 10 weeks and for the last half of this period they were given relatively large daily doses of testosterone and highly purified human pituitary follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), singly and in combination.

Oestradiol treatment reduced and testosterone restored the yields of mature (step 16) spermatids from round (step 7) spermatids, round spermatids from pachytene primary spermatocytes and pachytene from preleptotene spermatocytes. At the dose level used FSH was not effective alone but appeared to augment the effect of testosterone on the yield of round spermatids from preleptotene spermatocytes.
