Abstract

Using a novel tissue-specific RNA interference (RNAi) approach that mimics the principle by which naturally occurring microRNAs (miRNA) are made, we demonstrate that the Wilms' tumor 1 (WT1) transcription factor has an essential role in spermatogenesis. Mice depleted of WT1 in Sertoli nurse cells suffered from increased germ cell apoptosis, loss of adherens junctions, disregulation of adherence junction-associated genes, and impaired fertility. These effects were recapitulated in transgenic mice expressing a dominant-negative form of WT1 in Sertoli cells, demonstrating the validity of our RNAi approach. Our results indicate that the tumor suppressor WT1 promotes Sertoli cell-germ cell signaling events driving spermatogenesis.

摘要

我们采用了一种新型的组织特异性RNA干扰(RNAi)方法,该方法模仿了天然存在的微小RNA(miRNA)的生成原理,结果表明,威尔姆斯瘤1(WT1)转录因子在精子发生过程中起着至关重要的作用。在支持细胞中耗尽WT1的小鼠出现生殖细胞凋亡增加、黏附连接丧失、黏附连接相关基因失调以及生育能力受损等情况。在支持细胞中表达显性负性形式WT1的转基因小鼠中也出现了这些效应,证明了我们RNAi方法的有效性。我们的结果表明,肿瘤抑制因子WT1促进支持细胞与生殖细胞之间的信号传导事件,从而推动精子发生。
