WNT/CTNNB1 signaling is involved in the regulation of multiple embryonic developmental processes, adult tissue homeostasis, abd cell fate determination and differentiation. Many WNTs and components of the WNT/CTNNB1 signaling pathway are expressed in the testis, but their physiological roles in this organ are largely unknown. To elucidate the role(s) of WNT/CTNNB1 signaling in the testis, transgenic Ctnnb1^tm1Mmt/ ;Amhr2^tm3(cre)Bhr/ mice were generated to obtain sustained activation of the WNT/CTNNB1 pathway in both Leydig and Sertoli cells. Male Ctnnb1^tm1Mmt/ ;Amhr2^tm3(cre)Bhr/ mice were sterile because of testicular atrophy starting at 5 wk of age, associated with degeneration of seminiferous tubules and the progressive loss of germ cells. Although Cre activity was expected in Ctnnb1^tm1Mmt/ ;Amhr2^tm3(cre)Bhr/ Leydig cells, no evidence of Cre-mediated recombination of the floxed allele or of WNT/CTNNB1 pathway activation could be obtained, and testosterone levels were comparable to age-matched controls, suggesting that genetic recombination was inefficient in Leydig cells. Conversely, sustained WNT/CTNNB1 pathway activation was obtained in Ctnnb1^tm1Mmt/ ;Amhr2^tm3(cre)Bhr/ Sertoli cells. The latter often exhibited morphological characteristics suggestive of incomplete differentiation that appeared in a manner coincident with germ cell loss, and this was accompanied by an increase in the expression of the immature Sertoli cell marker AMH. In addition, a poorly differentiated, WT1-positive somatic cell population accumulated in multilayered foci near the basement membrane of many seminiferous tubules. Together, these data suggest that the WNT/CTNNB1 pathway regulates Sertoli cell functions critical to their capacity to support spermatogenesis in the postnatal testis.
