Freezing and Thawing Human Embryonic Stem Cells
Since James Thomson et al developed a technique in 1998 to isolate and grow hES in culture, freezing cells for later use and thawing and expanding cells from a frozen stock have become important procedures performed in routine hES cell culture. Since hES cells are very sensitive to the stresses of freezing and thawing, special care must taken. Here we demonstrate the proper technique for rapidl...
متن کاملPeritubular myoid cells have a role in postnatal testicular growth
FSH stimulates testicular growth by increasing Sertoli cell proliferation and elongation of seminiferous cords. Little is known about the peritubular myoid cells in testicular development. In order to investigate the role of peritubular myoid cells in early testicular growth in rodents, two traditional models to induce testicular growth were used: FSH treatment and hemicastration. In order to a...
متن کاملSpermatogonial stem cells, infertility and testicular cancer
The spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are responsible for the transmission of genetic information from an individual to the next generation. SSCs play critical roles in understanding the basic reproductive biology of gametes and treatments of human infertility. SSCs not only maintain normal spermatogenesis, but also sustain fertility by critically balancing both SSC self-renewal and differentiat...
متن کاملRNF4 is a growth inhibitor expressed in germ cells but not in human testicular tumors.
The RING-finger protein RNF4 modulates both steroid-receptor-dependent and basal transcription and interacts with a variety of nuclear proteins involved in cell growth control. RNF4 is expressed at very high levels in testis and at much lower levels in several other tissues. We show that in germ cells RNF4 expression is strongly modulated during progression of spermatogonia to spermatids, with ...
متن کاملO-12: Clinical Grade Isolation and Cryopreservation of Human Testicular Cells
Background: More than a decade work in preservation of male fertility by spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) transplantation in animal models as well as new discoveries about the nature of human SSCs has prompted an investigation into the possibility of an effective clinicalgrade procedure for isolation and cryopreservation of human testicular cells. Materials and Methods: Clinical-grade reagents, v...
