Objective: Many cancer survivors may experience irreversible infertility due to chemotherapy treatment for childhood cancer. In this study, spermatogenesis development was evaluated following the grafting of fresh and frozen-thawed testicular tissue from neonatal mice to the epididymal fat of adult mice.
Methods: After bilateral castration of recipient mice, fresh or frozen-thawed neonatal testis tissues were grafted into the epididymal fat of the mice.

Artificially induced haploidy is lethal in vertebrates, although it is useful for genetic screening and genome editing due to its single set of genomes. Haploid embryonic stem (ES) cell lines in mammals contribute to genetic studies and the production of gametes derived from haploid ES cells. In fish breeding, doubled haploids (DHs) induced by artificially induced gynogenesis are used to generate isogenic gametes for cloning purposes.

Gonadotropins and progestins are the primary regulators of follicle maturation and ovulation in fish, and they require complex communication among the oocyte and somatic cells of the follicle. The major progestin and the maturation-inducing hormone in salmonids is 17α,20β-dihdroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (17,20βP), and traditional nuclear receptors and membrane steroid receptors for the progestin have been identified within the follicle. Herein, RNA-seq was used to conduct a comprehensive survey of changes in gene expression throughout the intact follicle in response to in vitro treatment with these hormones to provide a foundation for understanding the coordination of their actions in regulating follicle maturation and preparation for ovulation.

Photo-thermo-sensitive genic male sterility (PTGMS), which exhibits varying fertility levels under different environmental conditions, is a crucial method for heterosis utilization in wheat. However, the mechanisms underlying fertility conversion remain unclear. In the study, three BS type PTGMS lines were analyzed to study fertility conversion characteristics.
