| Research Abstract |
We have showed that xeroderma pigmentosum group A (Xpa) gene-knockout mice [Xpa (-/-) mice] provide a valuable model for growth retardation, internal tumor formation, impaired spermatogenesis as well as for UV-induced skin tumors in XPA patients. Gene expression analysis of each aged Xpa mice testis showed a different expression pattern of DNA repair gene, cell cycle-related gene(checkpoint), apoptosis-related gene compared to control. We found other pathological changes of the aged Xpa mice testis. These data will help us to understand the impaired spermatogenesis in the Xpa mice.
