Method for testing that SLC can maintain homeostasis of Leydig and muscle-like cells in adult testis

The invention discloses a method for testing that SLC can maintain homeostasis of Leydig and muscle-like cells in adult testis. Stem cells related to testicular seminiferous tubules of adult SD rats are called as Leydig stem cells (SLC) and can be differentiated into Leydig cells in vitro and in vivo. Proliferation and differentiation of the SLC are regulated by locally generated factors, including PDGF family members PDGF-AA and PDGF-BB. Both members are able to stimulate proliferation of SLC, while only PDGF-AA is able to stimulate differentiation of SLC into Leydig cells producing testosterone (T), while PDGF-BB inhibits the process. In the method, it is verified that the SLC can actually form Leydig cells or myocyte-like cells under different differentiation conditions. PDGF-AA + LH can enable the SLC to be differentiated into Leydig cells capable of generating T, and PDGF-BB + TGFB induces the cells to become muscle-like cells for expressing smooth muscle actin. The method can effectively verify pluripotency of seminiferous tubule-associated stem cells (SLC), and test important role of SLC in maintaining homeostasis of Leydig and Myoid populations in vivo.
