Spermatogonia
Stem cells located in the seminiferous tubules of the testis, responsible for continuous self-renewal and differentiation into primary spermatocytes, initiating spermatogenesis.
Key Functions:
- Undergoes mitosis to self-renew and produce more spermatogonia.
- Differentiates into primary spermatocytes, initiating spermatogenesis.
- Maintains the germline stem cell pool throughout male reproductive life.
