Figure 1. Quantification of FOXC2-positive spermatogonia (green) in histological sections of control and Dazl cKO adult testes. SOX9 marks Sertoli cells (gray), DAZL is in red, and DAPI marks DNA (blue). Select tubules are outlined via dotted orange line. Cells enlarged within insets are highlighted by arrowheads. Insets show spermatogonia that are DAZL-positive and FOXC2-positive (control and mosaic cKO panels); DAZL-negative and FOXC2-positive (mosaic and DAZL-negative cKO panels). Scale bar = 20 um.
