Testicular Artificial Can Production Sperm Human

One of the causes of difficult couples to have children is a disturbance in the sperm. Now researchers in California tried to create an artificial testis that can produce human sperm, so that it can help men who are infertile.

Revealed the objective is not to create testicular implants for men, but 'biological sperm-making machine' that will help study the causes of male infertility and make the solution.

We're trying to create a process of sperm production by the testes actually creates itself.

The first cells that grow and maintain in the laboratory. Then add the stem cells (stem cells) that human beings can make new sperm cells.

The key of this research is to produce sperm for men who are infertile so that it can be used for IVF or IVF treatment so they can have children.

These results could be very useful especially for men who have lost balls from cancer, accidents or other factors which make them not have the ability to produce sperm.

Even so this study faced several challenges, one of which is now a complex of DNA processing. In this case the researchers not only have to divide the chromosomes into two, but it should make the package of DNA with a very specific way.

Previously scientists have been able to harvest sperm from the testes of men who could produce it themselves, only the results are not enough to make the male be fertile.
