Sohlh2 Knockout Mice Are Male-Sterile Because of Degeneration of Differentiating Type A Spermatogonia
13 Mar 2008
Abstract excerpt
The spermatogenesis and oogenesis-specific transcription factor Sohlh2 is normally expressed only in premeiotic germ cells. In this study, Sohlh2 and several other germ cell transcripts were found to be induced in mouse embryonic stem cells when cultured on a feeder cell line that overexpresses bone morphogenetic protein 4. To study the function of Sohlh2 in germ cells, we generated mice harboring null alleles of...
