1 Relationship between time of reperfusion and E-selectin expression, neutrophil recruitment, and germ cell apoptosis after testicular ischemia in a rat model  Igor Sukhotnik, M.D., Robert Greenblatt, M.D., Katya Voskoboinik, B.A., Michael Lurie, M.D., Arnold G. Coran, M.D., Jorge G.

2 Figure 1 Relationship between time of reperfusion and E-selectin expression, neutrophil recruitment, and germ cell apoptosis in the ischemic testis after testicular IR in a rat. Values are mean ± SEM.∗P<.05 vs. sham. #P<.05 vs. group F (72 h). Fertility and Sterility  , DOI: ( /j.fertnstert ) Copyright © 2008 American Society for Reproductive Medicine Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Relationship between time of reperfusion and E-selectin expression, neutrophil recruitment, and germ cell apoptosis in the contralateral testis after testicular IR in a rat.

4 Figure 3 Representative sections of E-selectin expression (A), neutrophil recruitment (B), and germ cell apoptosis (C) in the contralateral testis in sham rats and after 24 hours of reperfusion. (A) Arrows indicate specific immunostaining of endothelial cells. There is no E-selectin immunoreactivity in the contralateral testis of sham rats, whereas IR rats show E-selectin–positive vessels. (B) Arrows indicate adherent polymorphonuclear (PMN) cells in subtunical venules in the contralateral testis. The number of adherent PMN cells increases after 24 hours of reperfusion, compared with sham animals. (C) Representative sections of apoptosis in the contralateral testis. Single apoptotic cells (arrows) are present in sections from sham rats. Apoptotic cells are found frequently in IR rats.
