PRC1 suppresses a female gene regulatory network to ensure testicular differentiation
Cell Death and Disease, 2023 Gonadal sex determination and differentiation are controlled by somatic support cells of testes (Sertoli cells) and ovaries (granulosa cells). In testes, the epigenetic mechanism that maintains chromatin states responsible for suppressing female sexual ...

SALL4 Expression in Gonocytes and Spermatogonial Clones of Postnatal Mouse Testes [PDF]
, 2013 The spermatogenic lineage is established after birth when gonocytes migrate to the basement membrane of seminiferous tubules and give rise to spermatogonial stem cells (SSC). In adults, SSCs reside within the population of undifferentiated spermatogonia (
