Loss of Dicer in Sertoli Cells Has a Major Impact on the Testicular Proteome of Mice
13 May 2010
Abstract excerpt
Sertoli cells (SCs) are the central, essential coordinators of spermatogenesis, without which germ cell development cannot occur. We previously showed that Dicer, an RNaseIII endonuclease required for microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis, is absolutely essential for Sertoli cells to mature, survive, and ultimately sustain germ cell development. Here, using isotope-coded protein labeling, a technique for protein relative...
