ABSTRACT
During mammalian development, migration, proliferation and survival of primordial germ cells can give rise to germ stem cells. There are evidences that stem cells also exist in adult gonad, and can maintain the renewal of germ cells and decelerate aging process. Therefore, germ stem cells play a pivotal role in rejuvenation of adult tissues as well as regeneration of damaged organs. Such cells have provided a potential resource for stem cell therapy and regenerative medicine.
