Rescue of male infertility by human PRSS55 in transgenic mice establishes a contraceptive research model

Abstract The development of non-hormonal male contraceptives requires validated preclinical models. This study investigated whether human orthologs of two mouse testis-specific serine proteases, PRSS55 and TMPRSS12, both essential for male fertility in mice, could functionally rescue the infertility...
