In situ analysis of fetal, prepuberal and adult XX ↔ XY chimaeric mouse testes: Sertoli cells are predominantly, but not exclusively, XY
1 May 1991
Abstract excerpt
The testes of fetal, prepuberal and adult XX----XY chimaeras were examined using in situ hybridisation to identify the beta-globin transgenic marker contained in one component of each chimaera. This enabled the proportion of XX and XY cells contributing to the major cell lineages of the testis to be estimated from sectioned and air-dried material. A few XX Sertoli cells were found in all three age groups, but the...
