Volume density of Sertoli cells in mature rats was estimated in different stages of the cycle of the seminiferous epithelium. Manual point-counting on electron micrograph montages revealed a more than 40% increase in Sertoli cell volume from just before to just after spermiation. It is suggested that this variation should be considered in studies of stage-dependent cyclic variations in activity of Sertoli cells and/or germ cells.
在成熟大鼠的生精上皮周期的不同阶段，对支持细胞的体积密度进行了估计。在电子显微镜照片蒙片上进行人工点计数显示，从精子发生前到精子发生后，支持细胞体积增加了40%以上。建议在研究支持细胞和/或生殖细胞活性的阶段依赖性周期性变化时应考虑这种变化。
