P-13: The Expression of SOX3 Gene in Human Sertoli Cells of Azoospermic Patient
Background Sertoli cells located in seminiferous tubular basement membrane and surrounds different types of germ cell and they were only somatic cell type that directly contacts germ cells. These cells have Several role like support activities, nutrition of germ cells.During spermatogenesis, expression of SOX3 is necessary for differentiation of spermatogonia A. SOX3 is a transcription factor, ...
متن کاملDifferential Gene-Expression of Metallothionein 1M and 1G in Response to Zinc in Sertoli TM4 Cells
Background: Zinc (Zn) as an important trace element is essential for testicular development and spermatogenesis. Molecular mechanism of Zn action in the reproductive system may be related to metal binding low-molecular weight proteins, metallothioneins (MT). Our objective was to determine the effect of Zn on two important isoforms of MT, MT1M and MT1G genes expression on testicular sertoli cell...
متن کاملDopamine receptor gene expression by enkephalin neurons in rat forebrain.
In situ hybridization experiments were performed with brain sections from normal, control and haloperidol-treated rats to identify and map the cells expressing the D2 dopamine receptor gene. D2 receptor mRNA was detected with radioactive or biotinylated oligonucleotide probes. D2 receptor mRNA was present in glandular cells of the pituitary intermediate lobe and in neurons of the substantia nig...
متن کاملThe effects of chlorodiazepoxide on the Bax gene expression in CA1 pyramidal cells of the newborn rat hippocampus
Background: Most drugs used by pregnant women can pass through the placenta and expose embryos and developing embryos to teratogenic effects. Due to the increased cellular damage of Bax gene expression, the effect of cholorodiazepoxide use during pregnancy on Bax gene expression in the hippocampus of neonatal rats was investigated. Materials and methods: After confirmation of pregnancy in Wista...
متن کاملStage-specific gene expression is a fundamental characteristic of rat spermatogenic cells and Sertoli cells.
Mammalian spermatogenesis is a complex biological process that occurs within a highly organized tissue, the seminiferous epithelium. The coordinated maturation of spermatogonia, spermatocytes, and spermatids suggests the existence of precise programs of gene expression in these cells and in their neighboring somatic Sertoli cells. The objective of this study was to identify the genes that execu...
