(B and C) Counts of Leydig and Sertoli cells from E18.5 WT and KO testes. Embryonic testes (n = 3 per genotype) were sectioned, and 4 sections for each gonad were randomly selected and stained with the germ cell marker E-cadherin (green) together with either STAR (red) or GATA4 (red). Numbers of STAR-positive cells outside seminiferous tubules (Leydig cells) or GATA4-positive cells inside the tubules (Sertoli cells) were counted per unit area. The values are the mean±S.D. *P<0.05. There was no significant difference between WT and KO cell counts. (D) The expression of genes involved in testes development and function. mRNA expression of the gene markers encoding for PGCs (Oct4), Leydig cells (Cyp17a1, StAR, Insl3, Hsd3b1, and Cyp11a1), and Sertoli cells (Amh, Sox9, and WT1) was determined by qRT-PCR in E18.5 WT and Mafb KO testes. Gene expression levels were normalized to Hprt. The bars represent the mean±SEM of five individuals. *P<0.05.
