The localization of calmodulin in the normal human testis was studied by the indirect immunoperoxidase method. Three different types of fixative were used: phosphate-buffered formalin, Bouin's solution or Carnoy's solution. Immunoreactivity specific for calmodulin was not detectable in the testis fixed in Carnoy's solution. The specimens fixed in phosphate-buffered formalin and in Bouin's solution were stained. The immunostaining for calmodulin was observed in pachytene spermatocytes, secondary spermatocytes and round spermatids but not in spermatogonia, or in pre-leptotene, leptotene and zygotene spermatocytes, elongated spermatids, spermatozoa or Leydig cells. Sertoli cells were not stained or were stained slightly. Among pachytene spermatocytes, the cells at the early stage were barely stained but those at the middle and late stages were slightly and intensely stained, respectively. The present report provides the first confirmation of the localization of calmodulin in the human testis.
