Steroidogenic Factor 1 (Nr5a1) is Required for Sertoli Cell Survival Post Sex Determination
14 Mar 2019
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The elevated level of Steroidogenic Factor 1 (Nr5a1, Sf-1) expression in the male gonadal development pathway, post sex determination, implies a vital role in testis gonadal differentiation. In this study we generated Sertoli cell-specific Nr5a1 KO mice (SC-SF-1−/−) at E14.5, which coincides with testis development post sex determination, using the Amh-Cre mouse model. Analysis of SC-SF-1−/− (Sertoli...
