Absence of Estrogen Receptor Alpha Leads to Physiological Alterations in the Mouse Epididymis and Consequent Defects in Sperm Function

Male mice deficient in ESR1 (ERalpha) (Esr1KO mice) are infertile, and sperm recovered from the cauda epididymis exhibit reduced motility and fail to fertilize eggs in vitro. These effects on sperm appear to result from defective epididymal function and not a direct effect on spermatogenesis, as Esr...
