Expression of the centrosomal colon cancer autoantigen gene during spermatogenesis in the maturing rat testis.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We analyzed the gene and protein expression of serologically defined colon cancer antigen 8. Gene expression was upregulated in the maturing rat testis, and was localized to the spermatocytes. Protein was detected in the spermatids and at the sites of mRNA expression. Specific expression of colon cancer antigen 8 was observed in the maturing rat testis.

a key factor in spermatogenesis and disorders associated with this protein have been recognized to be related to male infertility. Although it was suggested that this protein could have different functions during germ cell development, no studies have been conducted to uncover the mechanism of this potential function yet. Here, we analyzed the expression pattern of RBMY protein isoforms in test...
متن کاملCancer/Testis genes in relation to sperm biology and function
Cancer testis antigens (CTAs), a large family of tumor-associated and immunogenic antigens expressed in human tumors of various histological origins, are highly restricted to the testis and trophoblast. CTAs have been identified as potent targets for tumor-specific immunotherapeutic advances and have immensely lead to the development of different clinical trials of CTA-based vaccine therapy bec...
متن کاملStudy of Tnp1, Tekt1, and Plzf Genes Expression During an in vitro Three-Dimensional Neonatal Male Mice Testis Culture
Background: In vitro spermatogenesis has a long research history beginning in the early 20th century. This organ culture method was therefore abandoned, and alternative cell culture methods were chosen by many researchers. Here, whether Tnp1, Tekt1, and Plzf, which play a crucial role in spermatogenesis, can be expressed during testis organ culture was assessed. Methods: Testes of 10 mouse pups...

Background: During the later stages of spermatogenesis, spermatid nuclear remodeling and condensation are associated with histone modifications and the sequential displacement of histones by transition proteins and then by protamines. In humans, approximately 15% of the sperm DNA remains packaged by histones in sequence-specific areas. The histone variant H2B, member W, testis-specific (H2BFWT)...
