Spermatogenesis associated 4 promotes Sertoli cell proliferation modulated negatively by regulatory factor X1.

Spermatogenesis associated 4 (Spata4), a testis-specific and CpG island associated gene, is involved in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. To obtain insight into the role of Spata4 in cell cycling control, we characterized the promoter region of Spata4 and investigated its...
