Nature:**睾丸干细胞可诱导为多能细胞

来源 Nature
虽然**睾丸细胞**于在正常发育过程中产生生殖细胞,但来自几个方面的证据都表明,它们在适当条件下可成为多能细胞。现在,这些条件已被发现。从来自**睾丸的未成熟人精子细胞开始,Conrad等人确定了可像人胚胎干细胞一样**纵和分化的细胞系。这些细胞可被稳定地分化成为分泌胰岛素的细胞或肌性细胞系、成骨细胞系和与神经细胞相似的细胞系。当在皮下移植时,这些细胞会在小鼠身上形成畸胎瘤,这是它们具有多能性的进一步证据,也反映了这些细胞在再生**中所具有的潜力。(创赛新闻中心canspecsci.com)

Abstract
Human primordial germ cells and mouse neonatal and ***** germlinestem cells are pluripotent and show similar properties to embryonicstem cells. Here we report the successful establishment of human***** germline stem cells derived from spermatogonial cells of***** human testis. Cellular and molecular characterization ofthese cells revealed many similarities to human embryonic stemcells, and the germline stem cells produced teratomas aftertransplantation into immunodeficient mice. The human ***** germlinestem cells differentiated into various types of somatic cells ofall three germ layers when grown under conditions used to inducethe differentiation of human embryonic stem cells. We conclude thatthe generation of human ***** germline stem cells from testicularbiopsies may provide simple and non-controversial access toindividual cell-based therapy without the ethical and immunologicalproblems associated with human embryonic stem cells.
