Identification of the starting point for spermatogenesis and characterization of the testicular stem cell in adult male rhesus monkeys
11 Feb 2005
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Spermatogonial expansion in man and non-human primates has been studied for decades. Controversy persists about the cell type representing the testicular stem cell and the exact kinetics of spermatogonial proliferation. We recently determined the starting point of spermatogenesis and proposed a model for clonal expansion of spermatogonia in adult macaques. Here we want to confirm the initiation event,...
