Core binding factor subunit β plays diverse and essential roles in the male germline

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Much of the foundation for lifelong spermatogenesis is established prior to puberty, and disruptions during this developmental window negatively impact fertility long into adulthood.

Methamphetamine-induced inhibition of Mettl21c in undifferentiated spermatogonia impairs male fertility in mice

open access: yesAsian Journal of Andrology
Chronic methamphetamine (Meth) exposure has been recognized as a critical risk factor for male reproductive dysfunction, yet its mechanistic underpinnings remain elusive.

Doxorubicin and vincristine affect undifferentiated rat spermatogonia [PDF]

open access: yesReproduction, 2017
Abstract Anticancer drugs, such as alkylating agents, can affect male fertility by targeting the DNA of proliferative spermatogonial stem cells (SSC). Therefore, to reduce such side effects, other chemotherapeutics are used. However, less is known about their potential genotoxicity on SSC.

Long-Term Propagation of Porcine Undifferentiated Spermatogonia [PDF]

open access: yesStem Cells and Development, 2017
Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) provide the foundation for spermatogenesis and fertility throughout the adult life of a male. Genetic manipulations of SSCs combined with germ cell transplantation present a novel approach for gene therapy and production of genetically modified animals.

The regulatory repertoire of PLZF and SALL4 in undifferentiated spermatogonia [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopment, 2016
Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) maintain spermatogenesis throughout adulthood through balanced self-renewal and differentiation, yet the regulatory logic of these fate decisions is poorly understood. The transcription factors Sal-like 4 (SALL4) and zinc finger and BTB domain containing 16 (ZBTB16, aka: PLZF) are known to be required for normal SSC ...

Transcription factor E4F1 dictates spermatogonial stem cell fate decisions by regulating mitochondrial functions and cell cycle progression

open access: yesCell & Bioscience, 2023
Background Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) provide a foundation for robust and continual spermatogenesis in mammals. SSCs self-renew to maintain a functional stem cell pool and differentiate to supply committed progenitors.

Testicular Localization and Potential Function of Vimentin Positive Cells during Spermatogonial Differentiation Stages

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Vimentin is a type of intermediate filament (IF) and one of the first filaments expressed in spermatogenesis. Vimentin plays numerous roles, consisting of the determination of cell shape, differentiation, cell motility, the maintenance of cell junctions,

SALL4 expression in gonocytes and spermatogonial clones of postnatal mouse testes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The spermatogenic lineage is established after birth when gonocytes migrate to the basement membrane of seminiferous tubules and give rise to spermatogonial stem cells (SSC). In adults, SSCs reside within the population of undifferentiated spermatogonia (

Transcriptomic and epigenomic profiling of young and aged spermatogonial stem cells reveals molecular targets regulating differentiation.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2021
Spermatogonial stem cells (SSC), the foundation of spermatogenesis and male fertility, possess lifelong self-renewal activity. Aging leads to the decline in stem cell function and increased risk of paternal age-related genetic diseases.

DAZL mediates a broad translational program regulating expansion and differentiation of spermatogonial progenitors

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Fertility across metazoa requires the germline-specific DAZ family of RNA-binding proteins. Here we examine whether DAZL directly regulates progenitor spermatogonia using a conditional genetic mouse model and in vivo biochemical approaches combined with ...
