摘要

Background and Purpose: The sexual activity of male tree shrews is socially influenced; therefore, the testicular lesions in adult male tree shrews were of interest. Methods: The testes of 229 adult and 9 subadult male tree shrews were obtained during routine necropsy and were subjected to light microscopy. At one time, 138 animals were experimentally exposed to social conflicts. Results: Hypospermatogenesis (testicular inactivity) was observed in social stress-exposed males up to two years of age. Seasonality of hypospermatogenesis could not be statistically supported. Testicular atrophy, observed in 21 animals, was neither stress- nor age-related; it developed unilaterally, with the left testis preferred. Testicular tumors developed in animalsolder than 2 years, with increasing frequency particularly of Leydig cell tumors in animals more than fours year old. Conclusion: Testicular lesions were more frequently found in male tree shrews than they were observed in non-human primates kept at theGerman Primate Center. Connections to social stress were statistically supported, particularly with respect to hypospermatogenesis. Testicular tumors, in contrast, were distinctly age related.
