4 Sept 2018
Abstract excerpt
STUDY QUESTION: Does loss of DMRT1 in human fetal testis alter testicular development and result in testicular dysgenesis? SUMMARY ANSWER: DMRT1 repression in human fetal testis alters the expression of key testicular and ovarian determining genes, and leads to focal testicular dysgenesis. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: Testicular dysgenesis syndrome (TDS) is associated with common testicular disorders in young men, but...
