Spermatogonial Depletion in Adult Pin1-Deficient Mice1
1 Dec 2003
Abstract excerpt
Spermatogonia in the mouse testis arise from early postnatal gonocytes that are derived from primordial germ cells (PGCs) during embryonic development. The proliferation, self-renewal, and differentiation of spermatogonial stem cells provide the basis for the continuing integrity of spermatogenesis. We previously reported that Pin1-deficient embryos had a profoundly reduced number of PGCs and that Pin1 was...
