text: Germline stem cells (GSCs) are found in organisms that continuously produce sperm and eggs until they are sterile.
text: However, a comparison between lentiviral encoded transcription factor‐mediated reprogramming of germline stem cells (GSC) to iPSCs, to culture condition‐mediated reprogramming of the same GSC lines, demonstrated that the two methods were similar in both the retention of epigenetic marks characteristic of GSC and the incidence of epigenetic errors attributable to the reprogramming process.
text: In Drosophila testes, somatic cyst stem cells (CySCs) and the apical hub form the niche for neighboring germline stem cells (GSCs), with CySCs as the proposed source of instructive self-renewal signals [Leatherman JL, Dinardo S (2010)
text: The Drosophila testis stem cell niche, a key model for understanding how the microenvironment regulates stem cell behavior (5⇓–7), supports two distinct adult stem cell populations—germline stem cells (GSCs) and cyst stem cells (CySCs)—both of which attach to a cluster of postmitotic somatic cells that form the apical hub (Fig. 1A).
