An analysis of apoptosis by counting the percent of TUNEL positive cells in the ventral prostate gland of mice with BAX knockout ( Bax -/- ) showed significantly less apoptosis on day 5 post-castration as compared to wild-type mice, instead, a higher percent of TUNEL positive cells was detected in Bax -/- mice on day 1 and day 14 (although the difference did not reach statistical significance).
