We found that male, but not female, mice homozygous for this mutation (Trpv6(D541A/D541A)) showed severely impaired fertility. The motility and fertilization capacity of sperm were markedly reduced, despite intact spermatogenesis. Trpv6 was expressed in epididymal epithelium where the protein was detected in the apical membrane, whereas it was not expressed in spermatozoa or the germinal epithelium. The Ca²+ concentration of the fluid in the cauda epididymis of Trpv6(D541A/D541A) males was 10 times higher than that of wild-type mice, which was accompanied by a seven-to eightfold decrease in Ca²+ absorption through the epididymal epithelium and was associated with reduced sperm viability. Thus, appropriate Ca²+ absorption and a consequent TRPV6-mediated decrease in the extracellular Ca²+ concentration toward the distal segments of the epididymal duct are essential for the acquisition of basic functions and the survival of spermatozoa."xsd:string |
