Abstract:Summary DNA flow cytometry was used to examine the effects of five chemotherapeutic agents, vinblastine, cisplatinum, 5-fluorouracil, cyclophosphamide and Adriamycin, on mouse testes. Alterations in the haploid (1C), diploid (2C) and tetraploid (4C) cell compartments were assessed at 11, 29 and 56 days after giving mice a single intraperitoneal injection of each agent. Analysis of the histograms proved to be a rapid and reproducible method of monitoring injury in this animal model. Because this procedure can detect subtle testicular injuries, it is predicted that DNA histograms obtained from fine needle aspirates will gain increasing acceptance in the management of the oligo- and azoospermic patient.
