TH transporters expression in the rat testis during its development. (A) Histological examination of Mct8 expression in the wild-type rat testis at postnatal day 56. Note that the Mct8 is absent in immature germ cells (spermatogonium) whereas it is expressed in maturing germ cells (spermatocytes). (B) Gene expression analysis of TH transporters in rat testis during development. The data are expressed relative to highest expression of each genes tested. n = 3.
