[Effect of overheating on spermatogenesis in mice and the value of heat training in adapting sex cells to the effects of high temperatures].
A single, 10-minute, stay of albino mature mice in a thermochamber at a temperature of 43 degrees C and a relative humidity of 65% caused destruction of the spermatogenic epithelium expressed in degeneration and desquamation of the sexual cells in 55% of the seminiferous tubules. Preliminary 10-day thermal training caused only an intensification of the physiological degeneration of the spermatogenic cells in 16% of the seminiferous tubules; this could point to the adaptation of the sex cells to the action of the high temperature.
