TI  - The Effect of Inhibin Immunization in Seminiferous Epithelium of Yangzhou Goose 
      Ganders: A Histological Study.

AB  - The current study investigated the effect of inhibin immunization on germ cell 
      numbers (spermatogonia, spermatocytes, round, and elongated spermatids), 
      seminiferous tubules (ST) diameter, Johnsen's score, epithelial height (mum), 
      luminal tubular diameter (mum), and number of ST per field (ST/field) of Yangzhou 
      goose ganders. Histological evaluation showed apoptosis and regression of testes 
      after inhibin (INH) immunization, with a concomitantly marked reduction in the 
      round and elongated spermatids in the experiment (INH) group compared to the 
      control group. The diameter of seminiferous tubules (ST) and epithelial height 
      (EH) were positively correlated at 181, 200, and 227 days of age. In comparison, 
      luminal tubular diameter (LD) was negatively correlated on day 227 to ST diameter 
      and epithelial height. On day 227, many seminiferous tubules per field (ST/field) 
      were negatively correlated to ST diameter, EH, and LD. INH immunization elevated 
      ST diameter, EH, and LD, while Johnsen's score and number of ST/field had 
      reciprocal expression. In conclusion, the concomitant effect of INH immunization 
      and seasonality in breeding regressed germ cells and damaged spermatogenesis in 
      seminiferous epithelium Yangzhou ganders.
