In mice, a technique was developed in which transplanted spermatogenic stem cells (SSCs) reconstitute complete spermatogenesis in the testes of infertile recipient. However, the dynamics of SSCs during the reconstitution process after transplantation is largely unknown. To dissect post-transplantation dynamics of SSCs, the behavioral process of donor spermatogonia was observed by in vivo live-imaging, and their fate was analyzed at a single-cell resolution. For live-i...
