Misregulation of histone acetylation in Sertoli cell-only syndrome and testicular cancer
12 Nov 2003
Abstract excerpt
In many species, including humans, chromatin remodelling during spermiogenesis is initiated with a marked increase in histone acetylation in elongating spermatids. We have investigated whether this process is disturbed when spermatogenesis is defective or in human testicular tumours. For this purpose, the presence of highly acetylated histone H4 was detected on testicular sections from men with a severe...
