Tcte1 knockout influence on energy chain transportation, apoptosis and spermatogenesis – implications for male infertility
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: RNA sequencing (RNAseq) in testis tissue has been done to obtain an answer about the influence of Tcte1 null mutation in knockout mice on the expression pattern of other gonadal genes in male animals that may be influential for male fertility status. Homozygous males (infertile) revealed oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (incl. circular pathway of sperm motility), while heterozygous animals (fertile) manifested oligozoospermia, suggesting haploinsufficiency. RNA-sequencing of the mutant testicular tissue showed the influence of Tcte1 mutations on the expression pattern of genes responsible for mitochondrial ATP processing, linked with apoptosis, or spermatogenesis.
