[Radiosensitivity of stem cells in the spermatogenic epithelium of mice of different strains and different ages]. 1988

O A Konopliannikova, and A G Konopliannikov

In experiments on CBA and BALB/c male mice (3 months of age) and F1(CBA X C57BL/6) hybrids (at the age of 3, 12, and 24 months) a difference was noted in the radiosensitivity of spermatogenic epithelium stem cells displayed by the changes in their colony-forming ability in testicular tubules 42 days following local 60Co-gamma-irradiation. The older the hybrid mice the smaller was the number of spermatogenic epithelium stem cells.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013045	Species Specificity	The restriction of a characteristic behavior, anatomical structure or physical system, such as immune response; metabolic response, or gene or gene variant to the members of one species. It refers to that property which differentiates one species from another but it is also used for phylogenetic levels higher or lower than the species.	Species Specificities,Specificities, Species,Specificity, Species
D013234	Stem Cells	Relatively undifferentiated cells that retain the ability to divide and proliferate throughout postnatal life to provide progenitor cells that can differentiate into specialized cells.
