Background Spermatogonial stem cells (SSC s) in the mammalian testis are unipotent stem
cells for spermatozoa. They show unique cell characteristics as stem cells and germ cells …

Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) represent widely expressed and evolutionarily
conserved proteins crucial for governing signaling pathways and playing essential roles in …

Undifferentiated spermatogonia eventually differentiate in the testis to produce haploid
sperm. Within this cell population, there is a small number of spermatogonial stem cells …

Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are unipotent in nature, but mouse SSCs acquire
pluripotency under the appropriate culture conditions. Although culture systems are …

Abstract Purpose Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are the source for the mature male
gamete. SSC technology in humans is mainly focusing on preserving fertility in cancer …

Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are specialized stem cells of the adult body having the
ability to both regenerate themselves and differentiate into functional cell, ie spermatozoa …

SSCs originate from the gonocytes in the postnatal testes which in turn originate from
primordial germ cells during fetal development. They establish niche in the basement …

The studies presented in this thesis were designed to identify, examine, and manipulate
potential factors associated with the development of porcine testis cells and tissue using in …
