Low <i>XIST</i> expression in Sertoli cells of Klinefelter syndrome patients caused the high susceptibility of these cells to an extra X chromosome

Abstract excerpt
Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is the most common genetic cause of human male infertility. Patients suffer from heterogeneous testicular atrophy with loss of both germ cells and Sertoli cells. However, the mechanism by which the extra X chromosome causes failure of spermatogenesis remains poorly understood. Here, we profiled testicular single-cell transcriptomes from three KS patients and compared the results with thos...
