Loss of germ cells in adult Cyp26b1^tm1Ptk/Cyp26b1^tm1Ptk Plekha5^{Tg(AMH-cre)1Flor}/0 (Cyp26b1^SC-/SC-) animals. 3-month-old wild-type (Cyp26b1^SC+/SC+) and mutant testes stained with hematoxylin and eosin (A and B) or antibodies to TRA98 (a germ cell marker, red in C and D), GATA-1 (a Sertoli cell marker, red in E and F) and 3bHSD (a Leydig cell marker, green in E and F). Note the decrease in the seminiferous tubule size in testes from mutant mice (F) compared to wild-type mice (E). Seminiferous tubules devoid of germ cells are indicated by asterisks. Bars, 20 um.
