Results
Specimen 5A,C Control E15.5: embryonic day 15.5; Arid4btm1.1Mywu/Arid4b+, Tg(Amh-cre)8815Reb/0 (more )
Note: Conditional mutant.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: germ cell of testis Present 5C , 5A

Specimen 5B,D Arid4bSCKO E15.5: embryonic day 15.5; Arid4btm1Alb/Arid4btm1.1Mywu, Tg(Amh-cre)8815Reb/0 (more )
Note: Conditional mutant.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: germ cell of testis Present 5D , 5B The population of germ cells in the conditional mutant was similar to that in the control.

Specimen 5E,G Control P10: postnatal day 10; Arid4btm1.1Mywu/Arid4b+, Tg(Amh-cre)8815Reb/0 (more )
Note: Conditional mutant.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: germ cell of testis Present 5G , 5E

Specimen 5F,H Arid4bSCKO P10: postnatal day 10; Arid4btm1Alb/Arid4btm1.1Mywu, Tg(Amh-cre)8815Reb/0 (more )
Note: Conditional mutant.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: germ cell of testis Present 5H , 5F The conditional mutant testis contained significantly reduced number of germ cells.

Specimen 5I,K Control P20: postnatal day 20; Arid4btm1.1Mywu/Arid4b+, Tg(Amh-cre)8815Reb/0 (more )
Note: Conditional mutant.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: germ cell of testis Present 5I , 5K

Specimen 5J,L Arid4bSCKO P20: postnatal day 20; Arid4btm1Alb/Arid4btm1.1Mywu, Tg(Amh-cre)8815Reb/0 (more )
Note: Conditional mutant.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: germ cell of testis Present 5L , 5J By P20, only few seminiferous tubules in the conditional mutant testis contained germ cells.

Specimen 6K,M,O Control: postnatal day 20; Arid4btm1.1Mywu/Arid4b+, Tg(Amh-cre)8815Reb/0 (more )
Note: Conditional mutant. Double labeled: green - Gcna; red - Amh (assay MGI:6369824).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: germ cell of testis Present 6M , 6O , 6K Expression of the immature Sertoli cell marker Amh has largely been turned off in the control testis. Whereas germ cells labeled with Gcna were present in all seminiferous tubules of the control testis.

Specimen 6L,N,P Arid4bSCKO: postnatal day 20; Arid4btm1Alb/Arid4btm1.1Mywu, Tg(Amh-cre)8815Reb/0 (more )
Note: Conditional mutant. Double labeled: green - Gcna; red - Amh (assay MGI:6369824).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: germ cell of testis Present Regionally restricted 6P , 6N , 6L No germ cells (Gcna positive) were produced in the tubules containing immature Sertoli cells (Amh positive) in the Arid4bSCKO testes. Gcna-positive germ cells were detected only in those tubules that did not express Amh.
