correlation of these data with the development of germ cells during rat testicular maturation suggests that the high odc activity in both sertoli and germ cells is associated mainly with cell proliferation while the increase in adometdc activity is most likely associated with the maturation of sertoli cells and the meiosis of germ cells , particularly the formation of pachytene spermatocytes and the meiotic cell division of spermatocytes into spermatids .
