Acute testicular ischemia results in germ cell-specific apoptosis in the rat

Testis torsion-induced aspermatogenesis is not necessarily due to permanent loss of blood flow nor to dysfunctional Leydig cells or Sertoli cells. This investigation was undertaken to gain further insight into the mechanism underlying torsion-induced germ cell loss. Male rats were subjected to 1-h o...
