Gene Expression Profiling and Its Relevance to the Blood-Epididymal Barrier in the Human Epididymis1

8 Feb 2007

Abstract excerpt

The luminal environment along the epididymal duct is important for spermatozoal maturation. This environment is unique and created by the blood-epididymal barrier, which is formed by tight and adhering junctions. For the human epididymis, little information exists on the proteins that comprise these junctions. Our objectives were to assess the gene expression profiles in the different segments of the human...
