Abstract

The role played by the Fas/FasL system in the activation of apoptosis during the spermatogenesis of the spotted ray Torpedo marmorata was investigated. By immunohistochemical and western blot techniques it was demonstrated that the Fas/FasL system is amply represented during spermatogenesis of T. marmorata and it could act both via a paracrine and autocrine route: paracrine at the level of immature and mature cysts, autocrine only in mature cysts.
