Claudin-11 regulates immunological barrier formation and spermatogonial proliferation through stem cell factor by Taichi Sugawara, Kayoko Sonoda, Nattapran Chompusri, Kazuhiro Noguchi, Seiji Okada, Mikio Furuse, Tomohiko Wakayama

“…Defective spermatogenesis in Cldn11-deficient mice was not restored on a recombination activating gene 2 (Rag2) knockout background lacking mature T and B lymphocytes. This suggests that adaptive immune responses to spermatogenic cells are not a cause of defective spermatogenesis in Cldn11-deficient mice. …”
