ALKBH5 in mouse testicular Sertoli cells regulates Cdh2 mRNA translation to maintain blood–testis barrier integrity
22 Nov 2022
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Background RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is involved in mammalian spermatogenesis. In both germ cells and Leydig cells, ALKBH5 regulates spermatogenesis and androgen synthesis in an m6A-dependent manner. However, it is unclear whether ALKBH5 plays a role in testicular Sertoli cells, which constitute the blood–testis barrier (BTB) through cell junctions between adjacent Sertoli cells. Methods ALKBH5...
