The primary focus toward elucidating the role of the epididymis in the maturation process has been the study of epididymal secretory proteins and their interaction with spermatozoa. To date there is a paucity of information regarding epididymal epithelial cell surface proteins, which may also play important roles in epididymal function. Through a subtractive hybridization approach to identify genes specifically expressed in the caput epididymidis, the mouse homologue of a member of the ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloprotease) family of proteins was identified. This rapidly growing gene family encodes cell surface proteins that possess putative adhesion and protease domains. Northern blot analyses demonstrated that the mouse ADAM gene, termed ADAM7, is expressed in the caput region of the epididymis and in the anterior pituitary gonadotropes with no detectable expression in the twenty-six other tissues examined. Furthermore, in situ hybridization experiments revealed that the ADAM7 messenger RNA (mRNA) exhibited an apical localization within the proximal caput epididymal epithelium that may correlate with an unusual sparsely granulated endoplasmic reticulum uniquely present in the proximal region of the epididymidis and to which no known function has been ascribed. Hormonal, surgical, and genetic strategies demonstrated that ADAM7 gene expression requires, in a region-dependent manner, androgens as well as testicular factors for expression. Interestingly, the apical localization of ADAM7 mRNA is dependent upon an intact testis, because in situ hybridization analyses of the proximal caput epididymidis from a testosterone maintained castrate mouse did not show the apical localization of ADAM7 mRNA. Finally, chromosomal mapping demonstrated that the ADAM7 gene maps to the central region of mouse Chromosome 14, approximately 4-5 cM distal from the fertilin beta locus, which encodes another reproductive-specific ADAM protein."xsd:string |
