ICA administration alleviated the cell apoptosis in the testis of diabetic rats. A TUNEL assay of testicular tissues from different groups. Red arrows show representatively apoptotic signals of spermatogonia. B Quantification of apoptotic cells in A. C mRNA expression analysis of Bcl-2, Bax and Caspase 3 with qRT-PCR. The upper panes in A show cells with apoptotic signal, and the lower panes present negative controls. Bars assigned with different superscripts mean significant difference (p < 0.05)
