Figure 1:

Schematic diagram showing the histopathology of rats’ testicular tissues from the control group (A, B and C) and CC-treated group (D, E and F). ST = seminiferous tubules; IC = interstitial cells; L = lumen of the seminiferous tubule; BM = basement membrane; SC = Sertoli cells; Sg = spermatogonia cells. H & E X200, H & E X400.

Figure 2:

Schematic diagram showing the histopathology of rats’ testicular tissues from the CC+proplise-treated group (A, B and C) and proplise-treated group (D, E and F). ST = seminiferous tubules; IC = interstitial cells; L = lumen of the seminiferous tubule; BM = basement membrane; SC = Sertoli cells; Sg = spermatogonia cells. H & EX200, H & EX400.

Figure 3:

Schematic diagram showing the histopathology of rats’ testicular tissues from the CC+proplise-treated group (A, B and C) and proplise-treated group (D, E and F). CV = central vein; H = hepatocytes; N = nuclei; S = sinusoids; Bc = necrosis; Py = pyknosis; ICI = inflammatory cell infiltrations. H & E X200, H & E X400.
