Germ cell transplantation

Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology
S Schlatt

Abstract

Transplantation of germ cells leads to restoration of spermatogenesis from spermatogonial stem cells. The original description of germ cell transplantation in 1994 has led to new approaches to explore many basic aspects of spermatogonial physiology. Combining germ cell transplantation with culture and cryopreservation of spermatogonia opens new pathways for genetic engineering and conservation of livestock. In addition, autologous transfer of spermatogonia might be used as an approach for fertility preservation in oncological patients. This review summarises the history of germ cell transplantation and presents an outlook on future research on spermatogonial stem cells.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.

Adult Stem Cells

Adult stem cells reside in unique niches that provide vital cues for their survival, self-renewal, and differentiation. They hold great promise for use in tissue repair and regeneration as a novel therapeutic strategies. Here is the latest research.
