reproductive system
azoospermia ( J:303558 )
• absence of spermatozoa, with massive apoptosis of spermatocytes
abnormal spermatocyte morphology ( J:303558 )
• massive apoptosis of spermatocytes
abnormal chromosomal synapsis ( J:303558 )
• increase in numbers of oocytes showing synapsis defects
abnormal female meiosis ( J:303558 )
• oocytes show a delay in prophase I progression with the majority of cells at zygotene stage in 17.5 dpc females, while the wild-type oocytes are mainly at pachytene stage
abnormal ovarian follicle number ( J:303558 )
• drastic reduction of the follicle pool in ovaries
small testis ( J:303558 )
• 70% reduction in testes size
arrest of spermatogenesis ( J:303558 )
• complete spermatogenic arrest at epithelial stage IV and absence of spermatozoa

endocrine/exocrine glands
abnormal ovarian follicle number ( J:303558 )
• drastic reduction of the follicle pool in ovaries
small testis ( J:303558 )
• 70% reduction in testes size

homeostasis/metabolism
abnormal DNA repair ( J:303558 )
• DNA repair defects in meiocytes, with reduced number of RAD51/DMC1 foci on double stranded breaks and the subsequent reduction in the number of crossovers
