Abstract excerpt
A mouse testis-specific long noncoding RNA, Lodpr/lncRNA-HSVIII, is expressed in germ cells and Leydig cells; however, its functional role remains uncharacterized. To clarify the physiological role, we generated Lodpr/lncRNA-HSVIII knockout (KO) mice using the CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Although Lodpr/lncRNA-HSVIII KO mice did not exhibit infertility, their phenotypic traits were documented at 2 months and 6 months...
