Germ Cell Specification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The germline of Caenorhabditis elegans derives from a single founder cell, the germline blastomere P(4). P(4) is the product of four asymmetric cleavages that divide the zygote into distinct somatic and germline (P) lineages. P(4) inherits a specialized cytoplasm ("germ plasm") containing maternally encoded proteins and RNAs.

Of Stem Cells and Germ Cells [PDF]

open access: yesReproduction in Domestic Animals, 2011
ContentsStem cells have an intrinsic capacity to self‐renew and can differentiate to at least one specialized cell type. Different types of stem cells exist that can be culturedin vitro. The identity of the stem cells is marked by their origin and differentiation potential.

The dynamic expression of SOX17 in germ cells from human female foetus and adult ovaries after specification

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
BackgroundSOX17 has been identified as a critical factor in specification of human primordial germ cells, but whether SOX17 regulates development of germ cells after sex differentiation is poorly understood. MethodsWe collected specimens of gonadal ridge

Effect of Mytomycin C Treatment on Feeder Cells and the Proliferation of Cultured Chicken Primordial Germ Cells Isolated from Embryonic Blood

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2001
Chicken primordial germ cells isolated from embryonic blood were cultured in vitro on feeder cells derived from the gonads of 7-day incubated embryos. Primordial germ cells were proliferated about 13 times during the 4 day culture period on the feeder ...

Primary Culture System for Germ Cells from Caenorhabditis elegans Tumorous Germline Mutants

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
The Caenorhabditis elegans germ line is an important model system for the study of germ stem cells. Wild-type C. elegans germ cells are syncytial and therefore cannot be isolated in in vitro cultures. In contrast, the germ cells from tumorous mutants can

Seasonal composition of immature germ cells in the Yesso scallop identified by vasa-like gene (my-vlg) and protein expression, with evidence of irregular germ cell differentiation accompanied with a high mortality event

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2021
The objective of this study was to understand germ cell renewal and differentiation in the Yesso scallop Mizuhopecten yessoensis throughout its reproductive cycle.

Tre1, a G protein-coupled receptor, directs transepithelial migration of Drosophila germ cells.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2003
In most organisms, germ cells are formed distant from the somatic part of the gonad and thus have to migrate along and through a variety of tissues to reach the gonad.

On the development of extragonadal and gonadal human germ cells

open access: yesBiology Open, 2016
Human germ cells originate in an extragonadal location and have to migrate to colonize the gonadal primordia at around seven weeks of gestation (W7, or five weeks post conception).

Cell cycle regulation for meiosis in mammalian germ cells

open access: yesThe Journal of Reproduction and Development, 2023
In mouse fetal gonads, germ cell development is accompanied by changes in cell cycle mode in response to external signals and intrinsic mechanisms of cells.

Germ Cell Derivation from Pluripotent Stem Cells for Understanding In Vitro Gametogenesis

open access: yesCells, 2021
Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) have developed considerably in recent years; however, they cannot rectify germ cell aplasia, such as non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) and oocyte maturation failure syndrome. In vitro gametogenesis is a promising
