Human Sperm, Egg Cells Mass-Generated using iPS

[Tom.G]

Kyoto University scientists mass-generate cells for sperm, eggs using human iPS​

The research, published in the online edition of the British science journal Nature on Monday, amplified the number of male and female primitive germ cells over 10 billion times from their initial culture stage.

"(The findings) will expedite the pace of research," said Michinori Saito, a professor at Kyoto University and one of the research team members, noting at the same time that they still need to clear hurdles in several areas to achieve such a goal.
