<i>Sox8</i> and <i>Sox9</i> act redundantly for ovarian-to-testicular fate reprogramming in the absence of <i>R-spondin1</i> in mouse sex reversals
2019-12-16
Abstract excerpt
In mammals, testicular differentiation is initiated by transcription factors SRY and SOX9 in XY gonads, and ovarian differentiation involves R-spondin1 (RSPO1) mediated activation of WNT/β-catenin signaling in XX gonads. Accordingly, the absence of RSPO1/Rspo1 in XX humans and mice leads to testicular differentiation and female-to-male sex reversal in a manner that does not require Sry or Sox9 in mice. Here we...
