... MARVEL transmembrane domain containing) protein family remain to be determined. In this study, we focused on the testis-specific mouse CMTM gene cluster ( Cmtm1 , Cmtm2a and Cmtm2b ) and generated CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutant mice to examine their physiological functions. Although Cmtm1 mutant mice were...

...Ka-Wai Mok; Dolores D. Mruk; C. Yan Cheng ABSTRACT Mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is an emerging regulator of blood–tissue barriers that utilizes ribosomal protein S6 (rpS6) as the downstream signaling molecule. To explore the role of rpS6 in blood–testis barrier (BTB) function...

...Xiang Xiao; C. Yan Cheng; Dolores D. Mruk Summary The mechanism underlying the movement of preleptotene/leptotene spermatocytes across the blood–testis barrier (BTB) during spermatogenesis is not well understood largely owing to the fact that the BTB, unlike most other blood–tissue barriers...

... of a testis-enriched exon from the Acinus gene, whereas 9G8 and Tra2-β repressed this exon. We propose that hRBMY associates with regions of the nucleus enriched in nascent RNA and participates in the regulation of specific splicing events in the germline by modulating the activity of constitutively expressed...

...Nanaho Fukuda; Kentaro Yomogida; Masaru Okabe; Kazushige Touhara Although a subset of the olfactory receptor (OR) gene family is expressed in testis, neither their developmental profile nor their physiological functions have been fully characterized. Here, we show that MOR23 (a mouse OR expressed...

...Peter J. O'Shaughnessy; Heather Johnston; Louise Willerton; Paul J. Baker During testicular development, fetal and adult populations of Leydig cells arise sequentially. Previous studies have shown that androgen action is required for normal steroidogenic activity in the mouse testis. Therefore...

... of the cadherin/catenin complex to the actin cytoskeleton via α-catenin. To date, it is not clear how different cell types achieve the variable strength of cell-cell adhesion clearly needed in a multicellular organism. Here, we report the cloning and molecular characterization of αT(testis)-catenin, a novel human...

...Wei Yan; Janne Suominen; Jorma Toppari ABSTRACT Stem cell factor (SCF) plays an important role in migration, adhesion, proliferation, and survival of primordial germ cells and spermatogonia during testicular development. However, the function of SCF in the adult testis is poorly described. We have...

Low levels of both mRNA and its corresponding protein were detected early in spermatogenesis. However, a marked accumulation of the protein...
