The Length of the Spermatogenic Cycle Is Conserved in Porcine and Ovine Testis Xenografts
8 Jul 2006
Abstract excerpt
Xenografting of immature mammalian testis tissue into mice can accelerate sperm production. To determine whether this shortened time to sperm production is because of reduced length of the spermatogenic cycle, we applied bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation to analyze the spermatogenic cycle in porcine and ovine testis xenografts. Small testis fragments from newborn pigs and sheep were ectopically grafted into...
