Active Sperm Derived from Stem Cells
November 23, 2021 | Terry Sharrer
“This latest breakthrough recreates the distinct stages of sperm development from a primordial germ cell-like cell, through the stages of sperm development known as spermatogenesis into a sperm that can be used to create viable and fertile offspring. Researchers from the ASHBi Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Biology in Kyoto, Japan demonstrated their model worked in vitro and in vivo, in a breakthrough for in vitro gametogenesis, as previous work had not recreated the development of sperm entirely in vitro. Earlier this year mouse egg cells were developed from mouse stem cells entirely in vitro. MORE
