The complex process of spermatogenesis is regulated by various factors. Studies on spermatogonial stem cells (SCCs) have provided very important tool to improve herd genetic and different field. 0.2 to 0.3 percent of total cells of seminiferous tubules is consist of spermatogonial stem cells. To investigate and biomanipulation of these cells, proliferation and viability rate of cells should be ...

The origin and development of the spermatogenic cell lineage is reviewed, as well as spermatogonial kinetics in adult nonprimate mammals in relation to the cycle of the seminiferous epithelium, the emphasis being on spermatogonial stem cells. A hypothesis is presented for the transition from foetal germ cells, gonocytes, to adult type spermatogonia at the start of spermatogenesis. An overview i...

Background Infertility affects around 15% of couples, and male factors account for 50%. Cryptorchidism is one of the most common causes for azoospermia. Generation of functional spermatids from azoospermia patients is of unusual significance for treating male infertility. It has been recently reported by peers and us that human spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) can be clearly identified and cult...

Current cancer treatment regimens do not only target tumor cells, but can also have devastating effects on the spermatogonial stem cell pool, resulting in a lack of functional gametes and hence sterility. In adult men, fertility can be preserved prior to cancer treatment by cryopreservation of ejaculated or surgically retrieved spermatozoa, but this is not an option for prepubertal boys since s...

objective: we evaluated structural and functional changes of fresh and frozen-thawed adult mouse spermatogonial stem cells following auto-transplantation into gamma-irradiated testes. materials and methods: in this experimental research, the right testes from adult mice (n=25) were collected, then sertoli and spermatogonial cells were isolated using two-step enzymatic digestion, lectin immobili...

OBJECTIVE The properties of self-renewal and division in spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) support spermatogenesis. There is a number of reported methods for in vitro SSC culture systems. The development of a culture system that effectively supports isolation and selfrenewal of germline stem cells (GSCs) is of tremendous benefit for clinical trials, experimental research, and as potential treatm...

BACKGROUND Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs), a subset of undifferentiated type A spermatogonia, are the foundation of complex process of spermatogenesis and could be propagated in vitro culture conditions for long time for germ cell transplantation and fertility preservation. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was in vitro propagation of human spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) and improvement of ...
