Histomorphological effects of DBP on testis in rats (HE, x 200). a The solvent control group, the testicular seminiferous tubules were arranged and the structure was complete. No cells were shed in the lumen, and the number and structure of the sertoli cells were normal. b The testis tissue structure of the rats in the low dose DBP group was not changed obviously . c The middle dose DBP group, the testicular seminiferous tubules arranged in the rule, but the diameter became smaller, the interstitial widened, the level of spermatogenic epithelium decreased, and the spermatogenic cell shedding phenomenon was seen. d High-dose DBP group testicular seminiferous tubules arranged irregularly, spermatogenic epithelial cells severely damaged, sertoli cells dropped, and showed a vacuolar change
