Abstract

Preservation of human spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) may be suitable for young male patients at risk of male infertility due to various causes, such as gonadotoxic treatment or genetic diseases. With optimal cryopreservation, cell viability can be retained to reestablish spermatogenesis in the future through autologous transplantation or in vitro differentiationof SSCs. This protocol outlines techniques to optimize the SSCs isolation and in vitro culture. With particular emphasis on the microscopic characteristics encountered, this protocol outlines a broader approach to processing tissues with varying morphologies among patients.
