[Expression of Zfx in mouse testicular spermatogenic cells].

To investigate the expression of Zfx gene in spermatogenic cells. The testes of d6, d8, d17 and adult mice were collected, single cell suspension was prepared by combinatorial enzyme digestion, spermatogenic cells were isolated by BSA density gradient method, and Zfx expression was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western Blot (WB). Single cell suspension prepared by combination enzyme digestion method and density gradient method laid with BSA can obtain various types of spermatogenic cells with purity>85%; The expression level of the Zfx gene is low in primitive type A spermatogonia, type A spermatogonia, and type B spermatogonia, whereas it is high in preleptotene spermatocytes, pachytene spermatocytes, and round spermatid cells. It is not expressed in elongating spermatids and mature sperm. Zfx gene exhibits periodic expression in various levels of spermatogenic cells and may be an important transcription factor involved in regulating meiosis in spermatogenic cells.
