Structural and functional state of the seminal glands in the dynamics of chronic immune inflammation

Abstract

When studying the seminal glands of rats under conditions of modeling chronic immune inflammation, more pronounced morphological and morphometric changes characterizing the function of the gland were found on the 7th and 14th day of the experiment. The repair of the seminiferous tubules and the restoration of the clone of spermatogenic epithelial cells with normalization of the endocrine function of the gonads under conditions of modeling of chronic immune inflammation are observed on the 28th day of the experiment. The indicated morphological changes are accompanied by the restoration of the protein%synthetic function of spermatogenic epithelial cells, as evidenced by histochemical reactions to DNP, RNP, and PAS-reaction.
