Testicular size is directly proportional to fertility potential and is dependent on the integration of developmental proteins, trophic factors, and sex steroids. The teneurins are transmembrane glycoproteins that function as signaling and cell adhesion molecules in the establishment and maintenance of the somatic gonad, gametogenesis, and basement membrane. Moreover, teneurins are thought to function redundantly to the extracellular matrix protein, dystroglycan. Encoded on the last exon of the teneurin genes is a family of bioactive peptides termed the teneurin C-terminal-associated peptides (TCAPs). One of these peptides, TCAP-1, functionally interacts with β-dystroglycan to act as a neuromodulatory peptide with trophic characteristics independent from the teneurins. However, little is known about the localization and relationship between the teneurin-TCAP-1 system and the dystroglycans in the gonad. In the adult mouse testis, immunoreactive TCAP-1 was localized to spermatogonia and spermatocytes and co-localized with β-dystroglycan. However, teneurin-1 was localized to the peritubular myoid cell layer of seminiferous tubules and tubules within the epididymis, and co-localized with α-dystroglycan and α-smooth muscle actin. TCAP-1-binding sites were identified in the germ cell layers and adluminal compartment of the seminiferous tubules, and epithelial cells of the epididymis. In vivo, TCAP-1 administration to adult mice for 9 days increased testicular size, seminiferous and epididymal tubule short-diameter and elevated testosterone levels. TCAP-1-treated mice also showed increased TCAP-1 immunoreactivity in the caput and corpa epididymis. Our data provide novel evidence of TCAP-1 localization in the testes that is distinct from teneurin-1, but is integrated through an association with the dystroglycan complex.
