THE MECHANISTIC TARGET OF RAPAMYCIN (mTOR) AND ITS COMPLEX 1 ASSOCIATED PROTEIN RPTOR ARE GERM CELL-AUTONOMOUSLY REQUIRED FOR SPERMATOGONIAL DEVELOPMENT & CHAPTER IV: INVESTIGATING CHANGES IN THE TESTICULAR TRANSCRIPTOME DURING THE PROSPERMATOGONIAL TRANSITION
(East Carolina University, 2019-07-26)
Stem, progenitor, and differentiating spermatogonia are formed in the neonatal mouse testis, and they provide the foundation for spermatogenesis and life-long fertility. Currently, the factors that regulate these varying ...
THE ROLE OF RETINOIC ACID IN DIRECTING INITIATION OF SPERMATOGENESIS IN THE MOUSE
(East Carolina University, 2015-10-23)
The basic tenets of gametogenesis are conserved among metazoans. After lineage commitment, germ cells proliferate, complete meiosis, and then differentiate into gametes capable of fertilization. In the mouse, spermatogenesis ...
The Role of Differential Sensitivity to Retinoic Acid (RA) in Regulating Spermatogonial Fate
(East Carolina University, 2018-12-10)
In the mammalian testis, the foundation of spermatogenesis is provided by spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs); their progeny either remain as stem cells (following a self-renewal division) or proliferate as undifferentiated ...
ANALYSIS OF TRANSGENIC MOUSE MODELS TO STUDY MAMMALIAN SPERMATOGONIA
(East Carolina University, 2018-07-24)
Spermatogenesis in the mammalian testis results in the daily production of millions of spermatozoa. This developmental process is founded upon the actions of a small population of spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs). As SSCs ...
