Abstract

Male germ-line stem cells are the only cell type in postnatal mammals that have the capability to self-renew and to contribute genes to the next generation. Genetic modification of these cells would provide an opportunity to study the biology of their complex self-renewal and differentiation processes, as well as enable the generation of transgenic animals in a wide range of species. Although retroviral vectors have been used as an efficient method to introduce genes into a variety of cell types, postnatal male germ-line stem cells have seemed refractory to direct infection by these viruses. In addition, expression of genes transduced into several types of stem cells, such as embryonic or hematopoietic, is often attenuated or silenced. We demonstrate here that in vitro retroviral-mediated gene delivery into spermatogonial stem cells of both adult and immature mice results in stable integration and expression of a transgene in 2-20% of stem cells. After transplantation of the transduced stem cells into the testes of infertile recipient mice, approximately 4.5% of progeny from these males are transgenic, and the transgene is transmitted to and expressed in subsequent generations. Therefore, there is no intrinsic barrier to retrov...Continue Reading
