Testosterone-Dependent miR-26a-5p and let-7g-5p Act as Signaling Mediators to Regulate Sperm Apoptosis via Targeting PTEN and PMAIP1
18 Apr 2018
Abstract excerpt
Recent evidence suggests that testosterone deficiency can dramatically decrease the quality of sperm. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are conserved mediators of post-transcriptional gene regulation in eukaryotes. However, the systemic regulation and function of miRNAs in sperm quality decline induced by testosterone deficiency has not been investigated. Here, we found that the sperm apoptosis was significantly enhanced and...
