Zusammenfassung: | Dear Editor,
The in vitro propagation (IVP) of animal spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) provides materials for studying the mechanism of spermatogenesis and for developing novel animal transgenesis and human therapy. The IVP of SSCs is reported to be promoted by exogenous growth factors, among which the glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) has been recognized as the single essential one [1, 2]. FGF2, |
