physiological function histone H3K27 demethylase JMJD3 regulates the fragmentation of spermatogonial cysts. Down-regulation of Jmjd3 in spermatogonial stem cells promotes an increase in undifferentiated spermatogonia but does not affect their differentiation. Germ cell-specific Jmjd3 null male mice have larger testes and sire offspring for a longer period compared to controls. Jmjd3 deficiency induces frequent fragmentation of spermatogonial cysts by abscission of intercellular bridges Mus musculus
