These reprogrammed cells are referred to as induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Recent research has shown that pluripotent stem cells can be generated from adult human testis, and it has been suggested that culture conditions are particularly important for spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) and precursors, after reprogramming of pluripotent stem cells. However, complete reprogramming of cells derived from testis tissue is difficult even under ideal culture conditions. In addition, these stem cells require SSCs or precursors in the testis to produce normal spermatogenesis. We examined whether iPS technology would permit generation of pluripotent stem cells from adult testis tissue collected from infertile men. METHODS After obtaining informed consent, testis tissue was collected from patients with suspected male infertility (patients with oligospermia and 1 patient with Klinefelter syndrome). Tissues were mechanically dissected and dissociated by enzymatic treatment. The cells were then incubated with 7% FBS and DMEM for 4 to 5 days. Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc were delivered to testis cells by using a lentiviral vector system. Testis cells were then cultured with 7% FBS and DMEM for 4 days. Next, testis cells were grown on a mouse embryonic fibroblast feeder layer and incubated with ES medium and basic fibroblast growth factor. After 16 days, a small number of colonies were visible by microscopy. After 20-25 days, ES-like colonies were collected and their characteristics were investigated. RESULTS We were able to collect ES-like cells derived from infertile men. Short tandem repeat analysis confirmed that these colonies were derived from testis tissue. ES-like cells from the patient with Klinefelter syndrome were examine by G-band analysis: 47,XXY was present. In patients without Klinefelter syndrome, testis cells expressed OCT4, NANOG, STELLA, VASA, and DAZL. The colonies expressed OCT4, NANOG, and STELLA, but did not express the germ cell markers VASA and DAZL. We used embryoid body formation and teratoma formation to assess pluripotency both in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSIONS Using iPS technology, pluripotent stem cells can be generated from adult testis tissue from infertile men. Analysis of iPS cells from such patients may help to determine the mechanisms underlying male infertility.
