2. Figure 1
Seminiferous tubules of patient 3. (A), From the right testis and shows only a few residual spermatogonia and spermatocytes. (B), Also from the right testis and spermatogonia are seen as the only germinative epithelium. (C), From the left testis and shows a Sertoli cell-only pattern. Original magnification, ×200.

3. Figure 2
The PCR amplification of RNA from a right testicular biopsy from patient 3. Contrary to the histologic findings (Fig. 1A and B), PCR amplification of the markers for lactate dehydrogenase C4 (Ldhc4), a meiotic germ cell marker, and TP-1and PRM-1, postmeiotic germ cell markers, were identified. HPRT (hypoxantine phosphoribosyltransferase) represents a control marker for somatic and germ cells.
