Enhancement in colonization of bovine spermatogonial stem cells following addition of knock-out serum replacement to culture medium
Enrichment of cell suspension with germ cells prior to injection into recipient seminiferous tubules is of importance in spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) transplantation. Knock-out serum replacement (KSR) has been reported to enhance the proliferation of murine SSCs and human embryonic stem cells. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of KSR versus fetal bovine serum (FBS) ...
متن کاملEffects of estradiol on HIF-1α expression and trophoblast differentiation in first trimester villous explant cultures
Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of estradiol on the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α and the differentiation of trophoblasts in human first trimester villous explant cultures. Methods Villous explant cultures were established from first trimester human placentas (6-8 weeks of gestation, n=3). Normal villous tissues were explanted on Matrigel a...
متن کاملThe Effects of Chemotherapy on Metastatic Testicular Germ Cell Tumors
Modern chemotherapy combined with surgery can achieve complete cure in over 90% of all patients with malignant testicular germ cell tumors. Even tumors that have already metastasized at the time of orchidectomy are curable by platinum-based multidrug treatment. Chemotherapy related changes can be seen in the residual tumor tissue in metastatic sites. In patients fully responding to chemotherapy...
متن کاملUpdate on testicular germ cell tumors.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This overview discusses several important developments in testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) over the past year. RECENT FINDINGS Genomic studies continue to investigate gene expression as possible markers for disease relapse and metastatic potential. Optimal treatment strategies for early-stage seminomas continue to evolve toward surveillance versus chemotherapy, although d...
متن کاملI-5: Multicellular Human Testicular Organoid: A Novel 3D In Vitro Germ Cell and Testicular Toxicity Model
Background Background: Mammalian spermatogenesis is regulated through paracrine and endocrine activity, specific cell signaling, and local control mechanisms. These highly specific signaling interactions are effectively absent upon placing testicular cells into two-dimensional primary culture. The specific changes that occur between key cell types and involved spermatogenesis signaling pathways...
