| Popis: | Sertoli cells and other somatic cells of the testis comprise the germ cell niche and are critical to regulate spermatogenesis. Here the authors present a method in which Sertoli cells are selectively targeted for ablation by the compound benzalkonium chloride (BC) in mice, and the spermatogenic niche is subsequently repopulated in regions that have been affected by BC treatment. |
