Rabbit, nutria and chinchilla testes were evaluated to compare testicular cellular senescence. There were no major species-specific differences in structure of either seminiferous tubules or interstitial tissue. There, however, were occasional abnormalities in seminiferous tubule structure with there being multinucleated and exfoliated cells present in rabbit testes. Furthermore, there were seminiferous tubules without a lumen that were filled with premeiotic/meiotic cells in nutria; and tubules with vacuolization with there being no post-meiotic cells in chinchillas. There were no differences in distribution or content of acids, total proteins and polysaccharides in the testis of any of the three species. Results using comparative immunohistochemistry procedures indicated the testes contained a few senescent cells in seminiferous tubules with typical morphology and there was a large number of senescent cells in seminiferous tubules of nutrias and chinchillas that had an abnormal structure (P <0.001). Compared to rabbit testes, in which there was the least number of senescent cells in seminiferous tubules, there was a greater abundance of senescence markers in both nutria and chinchilla testes (P < 0.05; P < 0.001, respectively). Furthermore, there were small abundances of caspase 3 and LC3 in the testes of all species. In chinchilla testes, there was a lesser concentration of cholesterol (P < 0.001) and testosterone compared with the other species. Cellular senescence in testes, therefore, can be assessed by detection of morpho-functional disorders of the testis of the three species evaluated in the present study.
