Severely Reduced Female Fertility in CD9-Deficient Mice

Le Naour, François, Rubinstein, Eric, Jasmin, Claude, Prenant, Michel, Boucheix, Claude·2000·Science

Abstract

CD9 is a widely expressed cell surface molecule that belongs to the tetraspanin superfamily of proteins. The tetraspanins CD9, KAI-1/CD82, and CD63 are involved in metastasis suppression, an effect that may be related to their association with β1 integrins. Knockout mice lacking CD9 were created to evaluate the physiological importance of CD9. CD9 −/− females displayed a severe reduction of fertility. Oocytes were ovulated but were not successfully fertilized because sperm did not fuse with the oocytes from CD9 −/− females. Thus, CD9 appears to be essential for sperm-egg fusion, a process involving the CD9-associated integrin α6β1.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
