Figure 7. Photomicrograph of a section of the longitudinal section of the testes of Adult Sprague-Dawley rats treated for 28 days. H&E stain captured at 10x (Figure 7A) and 40x (Figure 7B) magnification. Legend: A=Control, B=Yaji, C=Red pepper, D=Black pepper, E=Cloves, F=Ginger, and G=Garlic. Black arrows=Leydig cells (Interstitial cells); black asterisk=seminiferous tubule lumen and red bracket: basal and adluminal membrane of the seminiferous tubule made up of spermatogenic cell lineage. The control group had all spermatogenic cell series, interstitial cells of Leydig and less occluded seminiferous tubule lumen. Rats given Yaji, red pepper, black pepper, cloves, and ginger had mild histological disruptions of the spermatogenic cell series as compared to controls and rats given garlic. However, the interstitial cells were undisrupted.
