Increment of Murine Spermatogonial Cell Number by Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Analogue Is Independent of Stem Cell Factor c-kit Signal
Recent studies have demonstrated that GnRH-analogues can stimulate regeneration of spermatogenesis of rats when administered after testicular damages.

description | Recent studies have demonstrated that GnRH-analogues can stimulate regeneration of spermatogenesis of rats when administered
after testicular damages. Although the mechanism of this phenomenon has not been elucidated yet, stem cell factor (SCF) produced
by Sertoli cells was proposed to mediate the effects of GnRH-analogues on spermatogonial proliferation and/or survival. In
the present study, we quantitatively evaluated the proliferation of spermatogonia and addressed whether SCF mediates the effect
of GnRH-analogue on spermatogonial proliferation, using a novel approach combining spermatogonial transplantation and laser
confocal microscopic observation. In the first experiment, using wild-type mice as recipients for spermatogonial transplantation,
the number of donor spermatogonia per 100 Sertoli cells in each spermatogenic colony was significantly higher in the experimental
group of mice treated with leuprorelin, a GnRH-agonist, than that of the control group at 4 and 5 wk after transplantation.
In the second experiment, Steel/Steel dickie (Sl/Sl d ) mutant mice, which lack expression of membrane bound form SCF, were used as recipients. As seen in the first experiment,
the number of undifferentiated spermatogonia was significantly higher in leuprorelin-treated than in the control group. Since
undifferentiated spermatogonia do not express the receptor of SCF, the present study clearly demonstrates that neither membrane-bound
nor secreted forms of SCF are involved in the mechanism of GnRH-analogue's effect on spermatogonial proliferation and/or survival. |
