NSSR1 (Neural salient serine/arginine rich protein 1, alternatively SRp38) is a newly identified RNA splicing factor and predominantly expressed in neural tissues. Although our recent study detected the expression of NSSR1 in mouse testis and uterus, the regulation of its expression during the development of reproduction system has not been reported by far. Here we showed that the expression of dephosphorylated NSSR1 increased significantly, while that of the phosphorylated NSSR1 keep stable during development of the caput epididymis. In adult mice, phosphorylated NSSR1 was mainly expressed in the apical side of epithelial cells, while dephosphorylated NSSR1 was mainly expressed in the principle cells of the epididymis and was regulated by testosterone. These results imply for the first time the potential roles of NSSR1 in the development and function of epididymis.
