Total DNA was extracted from GC2 cells or FACS-isolated spermatocytes using the DNeasy Blood & Tissue Kit (QIAGEN) according to the manufacturer's instructions. mtDNA levels were assessed by qRT-PCR using primers specific to mitochondrial gene 16S, with nuclear apoB serving as a reference. All the primer sequences are provided in Supplementary Table S1.
