Efficient Generation of Transgenic Rats Through the Male Germline Using Lentiviral Transduction and Transplantation of Spermatogonial Stem Cells
23 Feb 2007
Abstract excerpt
Spermatozoa produced from spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are the vehicle by which genes of a male are passed to the next generation. A single SSC has the ability to self-renew and produce thousands of spermatozoa; therefore, it is an ideal target for genetic modification to efficiently generate transgenic animals in mammalian species. Rats are an important model organism for biological research; however, gene...
