Abstract:
The production of sperm is a very complicated and orderly process, which involves the proliferation and differentiation of cells. The in vitro culture of spermatogenic cells includes tissue culture and cell culture. This study focuses on the advances in the in vitro culture of spermatogenic cells, testicular tissue culture and their culture conditions, and sums up the advantages and disadvantages of various culture methods, in an attempt to find the best method for differentiating spermatogenic cells in vitro and make the culture of spermatogenic cells an important means of treating male infertility.
