Figure 4

Graphical representation of testicular cell numbers after 17β-estradiol treatment. 2n represents somatic cells and some germ cells, 4n represents pachytene spermatocytes, and S represents the cells in the DNA synthetic phase of the cell cycle. E20 and E100 represent adult male rats treated with a dose of 20 and 100 μg/kg/day of 17β-estradiol for ten days, respectively. '*' denotes an increase of statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) with respect to the control, and '**' denotes a decrease of statistically significant differences (p < 0.05) with respect to the control.
