Transcription profiling of human epididymis

ABSTRACT: Analysis of the gene expression pattern in the caput, corpus and cauda epididymides of three donors of 26-50 years of age with no medical pathologies that could affect reproductive function. The data generated in this study demonstrate a region specific gene expression pattern along the human epididymis that seems to coincide with the morphological distinctive features of the excurrent duct. Experiment Overall Design: Epididymides were dissected in caput, corpus and cauda epididymidis from three donors: ages 26, 47, and 50 yrs. Expression profiles were generated on Affymetrix GeneChip U133 Plus 2.0 arrays (9 samples total).
