SALL4 Expression in Gonocytes and Spermatogonial Clones of Postnatal Mouse Testes
The spermatogenic lineage is established after birth when gonocytes migrate to the basement membrane of seminiferous tubules and give rise to spermatogonial stem cells (SSC). In adults, SSCs reside within the population of undifferentiated spermatogonia (A(undiff)) that expands clonally from single cells (A(single)) to form pairs (A(paired)) and chains of 4, 8 and 16 A(aligned) spermatogonia. A...
متن کاملDevelopmental expression of the pluripotency factor sal-like protein 4 in the monkey, human and mouse testis: restriction to premeiotic germ cells.
SALL4 (sal-like protein 4) is a pluripotency transcription factor, which is highly expressed in embryonic stem (ES) cells and which is essential for mouse preimplantation development. In adult mouse organs, Sall4 mRNA is highly expressed in the testis and ovary, while there is only little or no expression in other organs. There is also a high expression of SALL4 in human testicular germ cell tu...
متن کاملP-251: Effects of Indomethacin on Postnatal Development of Mouse Testes
Objective: Indomethacin is a non-selective cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor that is commonly administered to extremely low gestational age neonates for symptomatic patent ductus arteriosus. It suppresses prostaglandins which modulate growth and secretion of various hormones. We examined the hypothesis that early postnatal administration of Indomethacin may influence growth and development of test...
متن کاملGene Expression Profile of CatSper3 and CatSper4 during Postnatal Development of Mouse Testis
Channel activities, particularly those of calcium channels, have vital roles in the process of sperm maturation, motility and sperm-egg interaction. A group of the recently discovered ion channels associated with these processes is four novel channel-like proteins known as CatSper (cation channel sperm) gene family. CatSper1 and CatSper2 show sperm specific expression patterns. However, neither...
متن کاملPelota mediates gonocyte maturation and maintenance of spermatogonial stem cells in mouse testes.
Pelota (Pelo) is an evolutionarily conserved gene, and its deficiency in Drosophila affects both male and female fertility. In mice, genetic ablation of Pelo leads to embryonic lethality at the early implantation stage as a result of the impaired development of extra-embryonic endoderm (ExEn). To define the consequences of Pelo deletion on male germ cells, we temporally induced deletion of the ...
