Host defense functions of the epididymal amyloid matrix
The epididymal lumen is an immunologically distinct environment. It maintains tolerance for the naturally antigenic spermatozoa to allow their maturation into functional cells while simultaneously defending against pathogens that can ascend the male tract and cause infertility. We previously demonst...
