The prominent vesicle-like structure (marked with arrows) contained QSOX2 was observed specifically at the apical ridge of epithelial cells in porcine reproductive tract. This staining pattern was similar to those in mouse. b Western-Blotting analysis showed that two distinct bands at 50 kDa (marked with one arrowhead) and 75 kDa (marked with two arrowheads) can be detected in both boar seminal vesicle (SV) and epididymis (E) suggesting the presence of both long (75 kDa) and short (50 kDa) forms of QSOX2Back to article page
