SRY, a sex-determining gene, induces testis development in chromosomally female (XX) individuals. However, mouse XX Sertoli cells carrying Sry (XX/Sry Sertoli cells) are incapable of fully supporting germ cell development, even when the karyotype of the germ cells is XY. While it has therefore been assumed that XX/Sry Sertoli cells are not functionally equivalent to XY Sertoli cells, it has rem...
The aim of the present study was to investigate the changes in selected biochemical variables in Sertoli cells isolated from testis of mice (PEPCK-bGH) overexpressing growth hormone. Significant increase in the levels of total proteins (108.33%; p<0.001), lactic acid (95.23%; p<0.001), DNA (155.42%; p<0.001) and RNA (90.00%; p<0.001) were observed in transgenic Sertoli cells as compared to norm...
OBJECTIVE(S) Sertoli cells support in vivo germ cell production; but, its exact mechanism has not been well understood. The present study was designed to analyze the effect of Sertoli cells in differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) to germ cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS A fusion construct composed of a Stra8 gene promoter and the coding region of enhanced green fluorescence prote...
Androgens act to stimulate spermatogenesis through androgen receptors (ARs) on the Sertoli cells and peritubular myoid cells. Specific ablation of the AR in either cell type will cause a severe disruption of spermatogenesis. To determine whether androgens can stimulate spermatogenesis through direct action on the peritubular myoid cells alone or whether action on the Sertoli cells is essential,...
The immunohistochemical localization of actin, vimentin and tubulin in adult ovine and bovine seminiferous tubules was studied at both the light and electron microscopical levels, using an improved methodical protocol. alpha-smooth muscle actin and structural F-actin were found to be present in myoid peritubular cells. Structural F-actin also occurs in Sertoli cells at three localizations; 1) A...
BACKGROUND Germ cell elimination and sperm DNA fragmentation in men with primary testiculopathies involve apoptosis-related processes whose mechanisms are poorly understood. This study examines the participation of typical (caspase-dependent) and atypical (caspase-independent) pathways in these processes. METHODS Caspase activity and DNA fragmentation were evaluated in Sertoli and germ cells ...
In mouse testes, Musashi-1 (Msi-1) was predominantly expressed in the cytoplasm and nuclei of Sertoli cells. Here we demonstrate that knockdown of Msi-1 in Sertoli cells altered the levels and distribution of blood-testis barrier (BTB)-associated proteins. Moreover, Msi-1 knockdown in vivo disrupted BTB functional structure and spermatogenesis. In addition, we report a novel role of Msi-1 in re...
Sertoli cells are essential for regulating normal spermatogenesis. However, the mechanisms underlying human Sertoli cell development remain largely elusive. Here we examined the function and signaling pathways of BMP6 in regulating human Sertoli cells. RT-PCR, immunocytochemistry and Western blots revealed that BMP6 and its multiple receptors were expressed in human Sertoli cells. CCK-8 and EDU...
The aim of the study was to explore whether G-Protein-Coupled Receptor 30 (GPR30) was expressed in rat testicular Sertoli cells and to assess the impact of monobutyl phthalate (MBP) on the expression of GPR30 in Sertoli cells. By using RT-PCR, Western-Blot and immunofluorescent microscopy, the expression of GPR30 in rat Sertoli cells was found at both gene and protein level. Cultures of Sertoli...
