Transcription factors controlling development and function of innate lymphoid cells.
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a heterogeneous group of lymphocytes, which play an important role in tissue homeostasis at epithelial surfaces. They are scarce in spleen and lymph nodes, but substantial numbers can be found in the intestinal mucosa even at steady state. There, they represent the first line of defence against invading pathogens and contribute to lymphorganogenesis, tissue repa...
متن کاملEmbryonal carcinomas in Syrian hamsters after intratesticular inoculation of zinc chloride during seasonal testicular growth.
Zinc chloride solution injected into the testes of 49 Syrian hamsters during the early spring months resulted in two embryonal carcinomas of the testis found at necropsy 10 weeks later. The zinc chloride injections were made during the period of rapid seasonal gonadal growth when spermatogonial division is activated and resulted in areas of coagulative necrosis occupying about 25% of each testi...
متن کاملTesticular fine-needle aspiration for the assessment of intratesticular hormone concentrations
Measurement of intratesticular sex steroid concentrations in men informs both the development of male hormonal contraceptives and the understanding of male infertility. Given the challenges of using invasive techniques to measure testicular hormone physiology, our group has used a minimally-invasive fine-needle aspiration technique to measure intratesticular hormones in normal healthy men. Here...
متن کاملEffect of high intratesticular estrogen on global gene expression and testicular cell number in rats
BACKGROUND The identification of estrogen receptors alpha and beta and aromatase in the testis has highlighted the important role of estrogens in regulating spermatogenesis. There is a wealth of information on the deleterious effects of fetal and neonatal exposure of estrogens and xenoestrogens in the testis, including spermiation failure and germ cell apoptosis. However, very little is known a...
متن کاملIntratesticular transplantation of testicular cells from leukemic rats causes transmission of leukemia.
A rat T-cell leukemia model was used to study the safety of germ cell transplantation as a mean of preventing infertility in males undergoing gonadotoxic cancer treatment. Donor germ cells were harvested from the testes of terminally ill leukemic rats and were either used directly or cryopreserved and thawed before transplantation by rete testis microinjection. All rats transplanted with testic...
