Abstract: This study was established to explore the relationship between the expression of c-jun mRNA and testosterone secretion by comparing the c-jun mRNA expression in piglet’s testis at different periods and its serum testosterone. 1,3 and 5 weeks old pigs were selected. The concentrations of serum testosterone were detected by Testosterone ELISA Kit and the c-jun mRNA expressions were measured by using real-time PCR with SYBR GreenⅠ. As a result, the level of testosterone was gone up with the age and reached the highest point at 3 weeks old，c-jun expressed in each group, but the three weeks group had the highest expression. Therefore, there may be a dependability relationship between c-jun mRNA expression and testosterone secretion.

Key words: piglet; testosterone; testis; c-jun mRNA; real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR
