Fig. 3 — Analysis of male reproduction in C11orf94^−/− male mice. a Western blot analysis of C11ORF94 protein levels in testis of C11orf94^−/− and wild type mice. b-c Testis or epididymis weight/body weight. There was no significant difference between C11orf94^+/+ and C11orf94^−/− male mice. [testis weight/body weight: 0.7081 ± 0.01052 (C11orf94^±, n = 9), 0.6815 ± 0.01849 (C11orf94^−/−, n = 10); epididymis weight/body weight: 0.9129 ± 0.02722 (C11orf94^±, n = 9), 0.8891 ± 0.03275 (C11orf94^−/−, n = 10)]. ns: no significance. d Quantitative analysis of mature sperms in the cauda epididymis of mice. This showed significant and extremely significant differences when comparing the C11orf94^−/− to C11orf94^± or C11orf94^−/− groups (*, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.01). e–h Analysis of sperm motility (PR + NP) using CASA. There was no significant difference in sperm motility among different genotypes of mice. [47.24 ± 17.56, (C11orf94^±, n = 4); 43.13 ± 13.26, (C11orf94^±, n = 4), sperms number > 400]. RP: Progressive motility; NP: Non-Progressive. ns: no significance. f-g Analysis of the morphology of mature sperms by HE staining. f is a representative diagram of various sperm morphology. h HE staining reveals the morphology of spermatogenesis in testis of different genotypes of mice. Pl: preleptotene; Rs: round spermatid; Sz: spermatozoa. Scale bar, 100 μm
