This study shows that CX3CR1+ macrophages are essential for maintaining immune balance and epithelial integrity in the epididymis and testis, with their depletion leading to immune dysfunction and fertility issues.

This study investigates how intercalated cells interact with immune cells to maintain renal immune homeostasis and contribute to autoimmune kidney disease, identifying an IL-33-mediated Treg interaction.

This study shows that coordinated CAII and CAIV pH regulation is essential for sperm motility by establishing dual-compartment pH environments that activate CatSper channels.

This study shows that chronic inflammation in the epididymis leads to tertiary lymphoid structure formation and autoimmune fertility issues in mice, with similar autoantibodies found in human infertile patients.

This study investigates the role of proton-secreting cells in epididymitis, showing they modulate immune responses and impair sperm maturation in mice.
