Open niche regulation of mouse spermatogenic stem cells
15 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
In mammalian testes, robust stem cell functions ensure the continual production of sperm. In testicular seminiferous tubules, spermatogenic stem cells (SSCs) are highly motile and are interspersed between their differentiating progeny, while undergoing self-renewal and differentiation. In such an "open niche" microenvironment, some SSCs proliferate, while others exit the stem cell compartment through...
