title: [Analysis of spermatogenesis in senescence-accelerated mice].
abstract: A comparative analysis of age-related dynamics of spermatogenesis has been performed in mutant mouse lines predisposed or resistant to accelerated senescence (SAMP1 and SAMR1 respectively). The results show that quantitative and morphohistological trends in the development of sperm cells and Sertoli cells in both lines are similar in both lines. Their comparison with data obtained in our previous studies (Zakhidov et al., 2001; Gordeeva et al., 2001) shows that sharp quantitative and qualitative changes in the structure of the spermatogenic system have occurred in senescence-accelerated mice of new generations, which confirms the fact of dynamic instability of the germinal lineage. The role of stem spermatogonial cells in restoration of spermatogenesis in animals reaching the critical age is discussed.
