The late stages of spermatogenesis (spermiogenesis) were extensively studied for the possible direct effects of ABP [ 16 17 42 43 44 45 ] . In these studies, however, ABP (at least at physiological concentrations) appeared to be supportive, rather than detrimental, to spermatogenesis.
Taken together, the presence of increased levels of intra-testicular ABP in the TG mice after 7 days of age [ 25 26 ] and a wave of germ cell apoptosis seen in normal mice at 21 and 30 days of age in this study and by Rodriguez et al . [ 3 ] suggest that the heightened apoptotic wave found in our TG mice during the pre-pubertal period may be regulated by ABP.
The initial increase seen in germ cell apoptosis (especially at 21 and 30 days) is likely to result from a direct or indirect action of ABP and may affect the subsequent life-death balance of germ cell populations in TG mice.
Thus, at Days 21, 30, and 60, the changes observed must be directly related to the increased levels of testicular ABP present in these TG animals.
However, at this point it is not clear whether ABP regulates this apoptotic wave by direct action on germ cells or indirectly, by reducing the intra-testicular concentrations of free (bioavailable) T. The known biochemical properties and actions of ABP make the second mechanism more likely (see Jeyaraj et al.
