摘要:
Epithelium barrier integrity is assumed at least in part by the presence of junctions between cells. Tight-junction formation may be necessary for Sertoli cells to cease dividing and to support germ cell development. Microarray analysis of P20 Cldn11 +/- and Cldn11-/- testes confirmed the impact od Cldn11 deficiency on cell cytoskeleton and junction-related genes. Keywords: transcriptomic analysis Two-condition experiment: P20 Cldn11 +/- vs. P20 Cldn11 -/- testes. A pool of RNA from P20 Cldn11 +/- group was used as the reference group. Each P20 Cldn11 -/- was compared to reference group. Three biological replicates were processed in dye swap.
