Differentiation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells into germ-like cells in mouse seminiferous tubules
Our previous study demonstrated that human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs) were capable of differentiation into germ cells in vitro. To assess this potential in vivo, HUMSCs were microinjected into the lumen of seminiferous tubules of immunocompetent mice, which were treated with busulfan to destroy endogenous spermatogenesis. Bromodeoxyuridine labeling studies demonstrated that ...
متن کاملIsolation of Germ Cell Golgi Apparatus from Seminiferous Tubules of Rat Testes
Intact Golgi apparatus have been isolated with good purity from rat testis by a simplified sucrose gradient technique. The procedure is inherently selective in that most of the Golgi apparatus in the isolate are from germ cells in late spermatocyte or early spermatid development. No Sertoli cell Golgi apparatus are present in the fraction. Biochemical analyses showed that the enzyme N-acetylglu...
متن کاملImmature rat seminiferous tubules reconstructed in vitro express markers of Sertoli cell maturation after xenografting into nude mouse hosts.
Sertoli cells undergo a maturation process during post-natal testicular development that leads to the adult-type Sertoli cell, which is required for spermatogenesis. Understanding Sertoli cell maturation is therefore necessary to gain insight into the underlying causes of impaired spermatogenesis and male infertility. The present study characterized the cellular and molecular differentiation of...
متن کاملCisplatin Induce Changes of Cell Surface Glycoconjugates in Germinal Epithelium of Seminiferous Tubules
Introduction: Cisplatin is a platinum-based drug widely used for the treatment of different cancers. Cell surface glycoconjugates play an important role in cell-cell interactions. The present investigation was carried out to study the toxic effects of double dose injection of cisplatin on cell surface glycoconjugates in rat as an experimental model. Methods: In this experimental study, 45 adul...
متن کاملSupernumerary chromosome 1 in interphase nuclei of atypical germ cells in paraffin-embedded human seminiferous tubules.
The so-called atypical germ cells or cells of carcinoma in situ morphologically resemble neoplastic cells in seminoma. Since seminomas show numerical aberrations of chromosome 1 we have used a DNA probe specific for chromosome region 1q12 to determine whether such aberrations can be detected in atypical germ cell nuclei in paraffin-embedded seminiferous tubules as well. One-third of intratubula...
