| Abstract | Pluripotent stem cells derived from testis is a new, natural, and unlimited source for cell therapy in regenerative medicine and represent a possible alternative to replacing of all cells in the body. Here, we designed a simple co-culture system of spermatogonia cells with Sertoli cells for the generation of embryonic stem-like cells from mouse testis. The importance of our simple method will be clear when we compared it with other complex and time-consuming methods. Embryonic stem-like colonies with sharp border confirmed by real-time PCR, immunocytochemistry and flow cytometry assessments. Embryonic stem-like colonies were immunopositive for pluripotency markers. Transition of spermatogonia cells to embryonic stem-like cells was accompanied by extensive changes in gene expression. These changes included significant increase in pluripotency genes expression and significant decrease in germ cell-specific genes expression. Also, we proved the differentiation capacity of embryonic stem-like cells to neuroepithelial-like cells which were immunoreactive to Nestin and Neurofilament 68. Evaluation of genes expression during in vitro differentiation into neuroepithelial-like cells showed high-level expression of Nestin whether this gene approximately has no expression in undifferentiated embryonic stem-like cells. Also, expression of pluripotency genes has significantly decreased in neuroepithelial-like cells compared with embryonic stem-like cells. This study shows that embryonic stem-like cells derived from testis are capable to differentiate into neuroepithelial-like cells that may provide a cellular reservoir usable for neurodegenerative disorders. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
