Characterization of cell- and region-specific abnormalities in the epididymis of cathepsin a deficient mice

Cathepsin A (PPCA), a lysosomal carboxypeptidase that functions as a protective protein for α‐neuraminidase and β‐galactosidase in a multi‐enzyme complex, has been shown to be expressed in the epithelial cells of the epididymis. In the present study, the epididymis of PPCA−/− mice from 2 to 10 month...
