Abstract

KDM5D is a gene implicated in spermatogenic failure and sex-related differences in colon cancer progression, though its role in spermatogenesis remains unclear. We successfully generated a KDM5D knockout human embryonic stem cells using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. This knockout cell line provides a valuable model for studying KDM5D's function in spermatogenesis and its influence on sex differences in various diseases.
