Sperm has been grown in the lab and used to create offspring for the first time in major scientific breakthrough which could signal the end of male infertility. Scientists in China coaxed embryonic mice stem cells into sperm cells which were implanted into eggs, from which healthy mouse pups were born. It is hoped the same technology will eventually be available for men who do not produce sperm and British scientists said it marked a ‘significant step’ towards reversing infertility . “The report is a significant achievement and major step forward.” Dr Dusko Ilic, Reader in Stem Cell Science, King's College London “We think that it holds tremendous promise for treating male infertility,” said Dr Jiahao Sha of Nanjing Medical University. "If proven to be safe and effective in humans, our platform could potentially generate fully functional sperm for artificial insemination or in vitro fertilization techniques. "Because currently available treatments do not work for many couples, we hope that our approach could substantially improve success rates for male infertility.” The sperm-like cells were injected into a mouse egg and the resulting embryo implanted into a female. source: www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/science-news/12173317/Sperm-grown-in-lab-could-allow-infertile-men-to-have-children.html
