AAV-mediated gene therapy produces fertile offspring in the Lhcgr-deficient mouse model of Leydig cell failure
2021-04-08
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Leydig cell failure (LCF) caused by gene mutation results in testosterone deficiency and infertility. Serum testosterone levels can be recovered via testosterone replacement; however, established therapies have shown limited success in restoring fertility. Here, we used a luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotrophin receptor (<italic>Lhcgr</italic>)-deficient mouse model of genetic LCF to in...
