[ 51 ] described meiotic arrest and an "increased occurrence of apoptosis" of testicular germ cells (primarily pachytene spermatocytes and cells in metaphase) in 3-, 6-, and 12-month old ABP-TG mice and suggested that these events were the cause of the fertility impairment seen in these animals.
In support of this possibility, Spo11 of mice colocalizes extensively along homologously synapsed chromosomes during pachytene and dissociates when the homologs segregate from one-another during anaphase of MI [ 25 ] .
