This Article contains errors. Reference 51 was inadvertently omitted and is given below as Reference 1.

As a result, in the Introduction,
“Studies in rodents demonstrated the presence of CNR1 protein in germ cells, Leydig cells and possibly also Sertoli cells11,12,13,14,15.”
should read:
“Studies in rodents demonstrated the presence of CNR1 protein in germ cells, Leydig cells and possibly also Sertoli cells11,12,13,14,15, CNR2 in germ cells and Sertoli cells, and FAAH mainly in spermatocytes and spermatids1”
“Ablation of Cnr1 in mice had systemic and local effects on reproductive function; including decreased serum LH and testosterone levels16, but also disturbance of chromatin remodelling in spermatids13,14.”
should read:
“Ablation of Cnr1 in mice had systemic and local effects on reproductive function; including decreased serum LH and testosterone levels16, but also disturbance of chromatin remodelling in spermatids13,14. Genetic ablation of Faah led to elevated levels of AEA and caused impairment of fertility, which was rescued in mice with simultaneous knock-out of Cnr11.”
Additionally, within the Results,
“The peritubular cell reaction was though weaker than in epithelial and myoid cells of blood vessels, which are known to express CNR1 (Fig. 2).”
should read:
“The peritubular cell reaction was though weaker than in epithelial and myoid cells of blood vessels (Fig. 2).”
Furthermore, within the Discussion,
“CNR1 and CNR2, or CNR1 alone were described in murine Leydig cells and murine and frog germ cells, leading to a proposal that activation of CNR1 in Leydig cells is likely involved in steroidogenesis, while CNR2 in spermatogonia B might promote meiotic entry in mice15,33,34.”

Finally, in Figure 2, the bottom right histology image is incorrectly labelled because of an inadvertent rotation of the image. The correct Figure 2 appears below as Figure 1.
