Through the generation of a germline-specific Epas1 knockout mouse line, and through modulation of EPAS1 levels in primary cultures of spermatogonia with the small drug molecule Daprodustat, we have demonstrated that EPAS1 is required for robust SSC function in regenerative conditions (post-transplantation and post-chemotherapy), via the regulation of key cellular processes such as metabolism. These findings shed light on the relationship between hypoxia and male fertility and will potentially facilitate optimization of in vitro culture conditions for infertility treatment pipelines using SSCs, such as those directed at pediatric cancer survivors.]]> Wed 28 Feb 2024 16:12:13 AEDT ]]> EPAS1 expression contributes to maintenance of the primordial follicle pool in the mouse ovary https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:55287 Fri 10 May 2024 16:22:11 AEST ]]>
