Immunocytochemical localization of the epidermal growth factor receptor in mouse testis

The distribution of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in mouse testis was ascertained by immunocytochemical methodology using a polyclonal antibody (RK2) shown previously to recognize the cytoplasmic domain of the human (A431 cells), murine (Swiss 3T3 cells), and chicken (CK 109 cells) EGF...

description The distribution of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in mouse testis was ascertained by immunocytochemical methodology using a polyclonal antibody (RK2) shown previously to recognize the cytoplasmic domain of the human (A431 cells), murine (Swiss 3T3 cells), and chicken (CK 109 cells) EGFR. Initial studies performed to determine the usefulness of this antibody as a probe of the murine EGFR in testis employed two murine cell lines, TM4 and MA10, of Sertoli cell and Leydig cell origin, respectively, in which a physiological response of EGF and specific binding of iodinated EGF has been demonstrated. Western blotting in membrane preparations of TM4 and MA10 revealed only one prominent band at 170 kDa. Immunocytochemical localization in TM4 and MA10 cells illustrated a plasma membrane distribution of the receptor. Western blotting of membrane fractions prepared from testis also revealed a specific band at 170 kDa. In the intact testis, the EGFR was immunolocalized specifically in Leydig cells and Sertoli cells only. These results suggest that the involvement of EGF action in spermatogenesis may occur at the level of the somatic components of the testes, principally in the Leydig and Sertoli cells.
