생쥐 정소에서 밀착결합단백질의 일종인 zonular occludens-1 (ZO-1)의 발현을 조사하였다. RT-PCR결과 ZO-1의 2가지 isoform인 ZO-1$\alpha$＋, ZO-1$\alpha$-의 발현을 확인하였다. 생쥐 신생 및 성체의 정소에서 분자량 225 및 2001 KDa의 2종의 ZO-1의 단백질항원의 발현을 확인되어 RT-PCR의 결과와 일치하였다. ZO-l$\alpha$＋에 대한 ZO-l$\alpha$-의 상대적 발현량은 성숙에 따라 증가하였다. 2종의 ZO-1항원을 동시에 인식하는 항체를 사용한 면역염색을 통해 세정관 외곽의 Sertoli세포 사이의 접촉부위 및 Sertoli 세포와 생식세포 접촉부위에서 ZO-1의 존재를 확인하였다. ZO-1은 세정관내 세포들 사이의 결합부위 및 세포질에서 공통적으로 발현되지만 성숙에 따라 Sertoli 세포의 결합부위에서 강한 신호가 검출되었다. 2종의 ZO-1 항원의 상대적 발현량의 변화 및 세정관 외곽의 분포의 강화는 기능적 혈액정소장벽의 출현 및 정자형성의 진행과 관련된 것으로 사료된다.

Spatiotemporal expression of two isoforms of zonular occludens-1 (ZO-1), tight junctional protein, was examined in mouse testis. By RT-PCR, transcripts encoding two isoforms of ZO-1; ZO-1$\alpha$+ and ZO-1$\alpha$- were detected in testis. Two different forms of ZO-1 antigens with Mr.225 and 2001 KDa were detected in western blot of extract of neonatal to adult testis, coinciding with the result of RT-PCR. The relative amount of ZO-1 $\alpha$- versus 20-1 $\alpha$＋ increased as the mice matured. In immunostaining using the pan antibody which detected both isoforms, ZO-1 was localized in the intercellular spaces in the Sertoli cell - Sertoli cell contacts in periphery of seminiferous tubule as well as Sertoli cell - germ cells contacts within the seminiferous tubule. The expression of ZO-1 was ubiquitous in both junctional area and cytoplasm of seminiferous tubule components. However, more intense signals were found in Sertoli cell junctional areas according to sexual maturation. The changes in the relative amount of both isoforms and spatial distribution of ZO-1 at the periphery of seminiferous tubule might be important for functional appearance of blood testis barrier and spermatogenesis.

and quantitated according the manufacturer's manual. Reverse transcription (RT) was carried out in 50 # of 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 83, 50 mM KC1, and 5 mM MgCh containing 1 mM each of dATP, dGTP, dCTP, dTTP, 20 units of RNase inhibitor, and 50 pmol oligo(dT)20-M4 adaptor primer (Takara). The tubes (Gene Amp thin-walled tubes) were incubated at 3TC for 2 min, 5 units of AMV reverese transcriptase XL (Takara, Japan) were added, and the tubes were transferred to a PCR thermal cycler (Takara, model 480).

In conclusion, the changes in the relative amount of both isofbrms in testis and spatial distribution of ZO-1 at the periphery of seminiferous tubule might be important for func tional appearance of blood testis barrier and spermatogenesis. Further studies about the defining factors that regulate assembly of tight junctions or alter their barrier properties may be helpful for comprehensive understanding of formation of BTB in seminiferous tubule.
