Breeding sperm in the laboratory

The scientific community has created a breakthrough that can cause shock to help soon raise human sperm in the laboratory.

>>>'Breeding' with artificial sperm

German and Israeli researchers said it was possible to create mouse sperm from germ cells, a group of cells in the testicles responsible for sperm production, according to the Telegraph.

Team leader Stefan Schlatt, a professor at the University of Muenster (Germany), affirmed that this step opened up opportunities for the last infertile men to be fathers, instead of using donated sperm as before.

Experts cultured sperm by removing germ cells into a special compound called agar , to create an environment similar to that in testicles.

Professor Mahmoud Huleihel, who has also raised sperm at Ben Gurion University (Israel), predicts that in the near future, scientists will find a way to feed human sperm from germ cell extract and stimulate them to develop. developed under the supervision of experts.

The results of this important study were published in the prestigious Nature journal, and sparked the hope that mankind would eventually find a difficult answer to male infertility.
