Fig. 2. (A) Mitotic index of primary spermatogonia (I SPG) in the frog R.
esculenta testis at various times, 22°C and 12h:12h photoperiod. The
I SPG was expressed as the number of metaphases per total primary
spermatogonia counted x100 in three randomly chosen sections/animal.
Values are means ± S.D. Differences were considered
significant at P<0.01. (B) Western blot detection of PCNA protein
in the cytosolic testicular extracts of R. esculenta at various
times, 22°C and 12h:12h photoperiod. Proteins (40 µg/lane) were
resolved by SDS-PAGE, transferred to nitrocellulose membranes and then
incubated with antibody raised against PCNA protein; a specific band was
observed of 36 kDa (determined by comparison with comigrating size markers).
(C) The amount of PCNA was quantitated using ImageQuant 5.2 Program. The
values shown are representative of three separate experiments.
