ESTROGEN, THROUGH ESTROGEN RECEPTOR 1, REGULATES HISTONE MODIFICATIONS AND CHROMATIN REMODELING DURING SPERMATOGENESIS IN ADULT RATS

Estrogen, through estrogen receptor 1, regulates histone modifications and chromatin remodeling during spermatogenesis in adult rats

Estrogen receptors (ESR1 and ESR2) play crucial roles in various processes during spermatogenesis.To elucidate individual roles of ESRs in male fertility, we developed essie pink glove in vivo selective ESR agonist administration models.Adult male rats treated with ESR1 and ESR2 agonist for 60 days show spermatogenic defects leading to reduced sper
