Abstract excerpt
Although reactive oxygen species (ROS) are required for spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) self-renewal, they induce DNA damage and are harmful to SSCs. However, little is known about how SSCs protect their genome during self-renewal. Here, we report that Ogg1 is essential for SSC protection against ROS. While cultured SSCs exhibited homologous recombination-based DNA double-strand break repair at levels comparable...
