Abstract:
The germ cell lineage is unique in that it must ensure that the genome retains the complete developmental potential (totipotency) that supports development in the following generation. This is achieved through a number of mechanisms that prevent the early germ cell lineage from somatic differentiation and promote the capactity for functional totipotency. Part of this process involves the retained germ line expression of key genes that regulate pluripotency in embryonic stem cells, embryonic germ cells and some embryonal carcinoma cells, the stem cells of testicular tumours. Despite this, germ

Abstract:
AbstractTesticular germ cell cancer manifests mainly in young adults as a seminoma or non-seminoma. The solid tumors are preceded by the presence of a non-invasive precursor cell, the carcinoma in situ cell (CIS), which shows great similarity to fetal germ cells. It is therefore hypothesized that the CIS cell is a fetal germ cell that has been arrested during development due to testicular dysgenesis. CIS cells retain a fetal and open chromatin structure, and recently several epigenetic modifiers have been suggested to be involved in testicular dysgenesis in mice. We here review the possible in

Abstract:
The development of germ cells in the male pig was investigated ultrastructurally in normal and decapitated fetuses. The age ranged respectively from 30 days p.c. till one month after birth and from 52 days p.c. until birth. The ultrastructural organization of the germ cells changes dramatically between 30 days p.c. and 52 days p.c. which coincides with the formation of ‘true’ sex cords. From 52 days p.c. onwards the morphology is rather stable: cells show a ‘hydrated’ appearance and typical cell bridges. There is no obvious difference in the ultrastructure of germ cells in decapitated animals,

Abstract:
In the human embryo, the genetic program that orchestrates germ cell specification involves the activation of epigenetic and transcriptional mechanisms that make the germline a unique cell population continuously poised between germness and pluripotency. Germ cell tumors, neoplasias originating from fetal or neonatal germ cells, maintain such dichotomy and can adopt either pluripotent features (embryonal carcinomas) or germness features (seminomas) with a wide range of phenotypes in between these histotypes. Here, we review the basic concepts of cell specification, migration and gonadal coloni

Abstract:
Specification of a germ cell lineage and appropriate maturation are essential for the transfer of genetic information from one generation to the next. Germ cells form from pluripotent precursor cells that migrate into the gonadal ridge and undergo commitment to either the female or male lineage. In the fetal ovary, germ cells enter meiotic prophase I, then arrest at the diplotene stage; in the testis germ cells do not begin meiosis until puberty. Abnormal differentiation of germ cells can result in malignant transformation. Somatic cells play a key role in modulating the developmental fate of

Normal germ cell development in the human testis is crucial for subsequent fertility and reproductive health. Disruption of testis development in fetal life can result in deleterious health consequences such as testicular dysgenesis syndrome (TDS), which includes disorders, such as cryptorchidism, hypospadias, infertility and testicular germ cell tumours (TGCT). A rat model of TDS in which rats are exposed to phthalates in utero has been validated, but does result in the development of TGCT. In humans, TGCTs result from transformation of pre-neoplastic carcinoma in-situ (CIS) cells and these C

Abstract:
In most mammalian species, all oogonia cease mitotic proliferation and enter meiosis in fetal ovaries. Furthermore, more than half of the maximum number of germ cells is eliminated from ovaries by neonatal life, thus limiting the oocyte reserve for reproduction. The cause or mechanism of this female germ cell loss remains largely unknown. A major loss occurs in the oocytes which reach the pachytene stage of meiotic prophase, suggesting that oocytes with meiotic or recombination errors may be eliminated by a checkpoint mechanism. It remains to be determined whether oocytes are eliminated by apo

Abstract:
During gonad development and fetal life, the germ cells (GC) undergo a range of different developmental processes necessary for correct postnatal gametogenesis and the production of the next generation. If these fetal events are disrupted by genetic or environmental factors, there could be severe consequences that may not present until adulthood. This is of particular importance in relation to human testicular GC tumours (TGCT), the most common cancer of young men, as TGCT is thought to arise from fetal GCs that have failed to differentiate normally during development and thus persist into adu

Despite the general advice of avoiding medication during pregnancy, the majority of pregnant woman use one or more ‘over the counter’ analgesics. During the last few years there has been growing evidence that analgesic exposure, such as paracetamol, ibuprofen or indomethacin, during pregnancy can have detrimental effects on rodent and human fetal gonads. The majority of previous studies have focused in alterations in testosterone production and male reproductive disorders. However, few studies have analysed the effect of these analgesics on fetal germ cells and possible consequences on fertili

Many forms of pediatric and adult heart disease are accompanied by high morbidity and mortality, as the heart muscle has limited regenerative potential. Cell therapy has been proposed as a means to promote the regeneration of injured heart muscle. We have established lines of broad spectrum multipotent stem cells derived from primitive fetal cells present in human amniotic fluid (hAFS) cells (1). AFS cells offer several advantages: They are easy to isolate and grow (no feeder layers needed), are highly expansive including clonal growth and they can differentiate into all germ layers.
