In vitro differentiation of sperm from male germline stem cell.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this study, we developed a model of sperm in vitro differentiation to study the mechanism of spermatogenesis. We isolated newborn male germ cells for in vitro differentiation. We found that after 4-5 weeks of culture, sperm-like cells were occasionally observed in cell co-culture and the feed-layer. After 1-2 weeks of culture followed by 4-5 weeks of co-culture, sperm-like cells were observed.

Background: We have recently shown that human embryonic (hESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) can differentiate into advanced spermatogenic cells including round spermatids by in vitro culture (Easley et al., Direct differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells into haploid spermatogenic cells. Cell Reports 2, 440-446 2012) and also, in collaboration, that rhesus spermatogonial ...
متن کاملLUMP Is a Putative Double-Stranded RNA Binding Protein Required for Male Fertility in Drosophila melanogaster
In animals, male fertility requires the successful development of motile sperm. During Drosophila melanogaster spermatogenesis, 64 interconnected spermatids descended from a single germline stem cell are resolved into motile sperm in a process termed individualization. Here we identify a putative double-stranded RNA binding protein LUMP that is required for male fertility. lump(1) mutants are m...
متن کاملI-18: Avian Chimeras and Germ Cell Migration
Background: In avian species, the germ line stem cell population arises outside of the embryonic gonad and proceeds on a circuitous migration to the germinal epithelium. Specifically, in the avian embryo, the process of germ line stem cell migration proceeds through a series of active and passive migratory phases. The germline stem cells or primordial germ cells (PGCs) located in the epiblast o...
متن کاملMatrigel Enhances in vitro Bone Differentiation of Human Marrow-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Objective(s) The use of co-culture cells as well as extra cellular matrix are among those strategies that have been employed to direct mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) bone differentiation in culture. In this regard, there is no study considering the effects of Matrigel on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) in vitro bone differentiation. This was the subject of the present study. Materials and Methods ...
متن کاملPlasticity of male germline stem cells and their applications in reproductive and regenerative medicine
Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs), also known as male germline stem cells, are a small subpopulation of type A spermatogonia with the potential of self-renewal to maintain stem cell pool and differentiation into spermatids in mammalian testis. SSCs are previously regarded as the unipotent stem cells since they can only give rise to sperm within the seminiferous tubules. However, this concept has...
