Enrichment of Mouse Spermatogonial Stem Cells by Melanoma Cell Adhesion Molecule Expression1
11 Oct 2012
Abstract excerpt
Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) provide the foundation of spermatogenesis, but studies are hampered by their scarcity. Although the cryptorchid operation is often used to obtain an enriched SSC population, making cryptorchid testes is time-consuming and the technique is not applicable to many animal species. In the present study, we screened for a new surface antigen on SSCs using germline stem (GS) cells (i.e.,...
