Katnal11H/Katnal11H mice show disruption of the seminiferous epithelium associated with a reduction in numbers of post-meiotic germ cells

reproductive system
abnormal seminiferous tubule epithelium morphology ( J:185195 )
• severely disrupted at 70 days of age
abnormal Sertoli cell morphology ( J:185195 )
• evidence of vacuolation is seen at 70 days of age
• cells contain fewer stable microtubules at 22 days of age
small seminiferous tubules ( J:185195 )
• reduced diameter at 35 days of age
decreased testis weight ( J:185195 )
• first observed at 35 days of age
abnormal spermatogenesis ( J:185195 )
• the caput and corpus epididymides contain exfoliated immature germ cells indicating premature exfoliation of spermatids from the seminiferous epithelium
oligozoospermia ( J:185195 )
• decrease in the number of recognizable spermatozoa in the epididymal lumen
abnormal spermatid morphology ( J:185195 )
• decrease in the number of spermatids at 22, 35 and 70 days of age
• decrease in the numbers of elongated spermatids at 70 days of age
male infertility ( J:185195 )
• all males are infertile

endocrine/exocrine glands
abnormal seminiferous tubule epithelium morphology ( J:185195 )
• severely disrupted at 70 days of age
abnormal Sertoli cell morphology ( J:185195 )
• evidence of vacuolation is seen at 70 days of age
• cells contain fewer stable microtubules at 22 days of age
small seminiferous tubules ( J:185195 )
• reduced diameter at 35 days of age
decreased testis weight ( J:185195 )
• first observed at 35 days of age

cellular
oligozoospermia ( J:185195 )
• decrease in the number of recognizable spermatozoa in the epididymal lumen
abnormal spermatid morphology ( J:185195 )
• decrease in the number of spermatids at 22, 35 and 70 days of age
