Self-renewal and differentiation of rat epididymal basal cells using a novel in vitro organoid model
8 Jun 2021
Abstract excerpt
The epididymis is composed of a pseudostratified epithelium that is comprised of various cell types. Studies have shown that rat basal cells share common properties with adult stem cells and begin to differentiate in vitro in response to fibroblast growth factor and 5α-dihydrotestosterone. The characterization of rat basal cells is therefore necessary to fully understand the role of these cells. The objectives of...
