    Mammalian spermatogenesis is the most complex regulated process of cell development and represents a specific physiological process for the study of the peculiarities of the mechanism of spermatogenesis and for perceiving the basic evolution of all developmental processes, since it involves specific molecular processes of somatic and sex cells. Spermatogenesis generates spermatozoa from spermatogonal stem cells through several stages and comprises spermatocytogenesis, meiosis and spermiogenesis with the continuous unfolding of molecular events of mitosis, meiosis and epigenetic dynamic changes at the morphological and molecular level. Spermatogenesis establishes some dynamic changes by overlapping the functions of different types of cells and is maintained by different physiological factors impacting testicular morphofunction. The existing overlaps complicate the conclusive elucidation of the individual roles of different somatic and germ cells in the self-renewal, proliferation and apoptosis of spermatogonial stem cells and create difficulties in understanding the contribution of distinct signaling molecules during spermatogenesis. Several factors, compounds secreted by all somatic cells, including Sertoli cells, peritubular myoid cells and Leydig cells are involved in the regulation and development of spermatogenesis, but the mechanisms by which these factors interact in somatic and germ cells are largely unknown and a comprehensive study of these cells is needed.

    Proprietățile celulelor stem spermatogoniale în mediul nișelor fiziologice și metabolice testiculare
    (Editura USM, 2024) Balan, Ion; Gavojdian, Dinu; Budevici, Alexandr; Roșca, Nicolae; Buzan, Vladimir; Balacci, Sergiu; Osipciuc, Galina; Furdui, Vlada; Harea, Vasile; Cretu, Roman; Bacu, Gheorghe; Țurcanu, Parascovia; Temciuc, Vlad; Filippov, Artiom
    Spermatogenesis is a continuous process, maintained by the self-renewal and differentiation of spermatogonial stem cells (SSC), which arise from undifferentiated precursors (gonocytes) in the physiological conditions of the testicular cell niche. SSC serve as the foundation for the physiology of continuous spermatogenesis, they have the ability to self-renew by differentiation to produce spermatozoa suitable for fertilization, therefore the knowledge of the regulatory processes of SSC is of great importance for understanding the fundamental molecular mechanisms of the function of these cells in spermatogenesis. By strict physiological regulation, spermatogonial transitions occur with a complete non-exploitation of equivalent changes in metabolism, a conserved overregulation of mitochondrial function, biogenesis and oxidative phosphorylation in spermatogony differentiation, as well as the relationship between metabolism and the external microenvironment. In the present paper we have tried to review the current state of research in CSS physiology and biology, as well as their molecular regulation, in the physiological and metabolic niches, necessary for fundamental investigations and possible practical applications. Elucidation of the exact mechanisms and characteristics of testicular maturation events and gonocyte transition to SSC by activation of CSS-specific pathways or early embryonic establishment of transcriptional profiling of neonatal and prepubertal spermatogonia will contribute to new achievements of biological, physiological and metabolic aspects of SSC. Increased knowledge regarding the biology, physiology and metabolism of SSC will improve our understanding of the possibilities of applying SSC tools and manipulations in the evolution of spermatogenesis mechanisms.
