Outline of Final Research Achievements |
International joint research was performed, based on the research supported by Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research on Innovation Area "Mechanisms regulating gamete formation in animals", which aimed to find the regulatory mechanisms of primordial germ cell (PGC) formation and gamete stem cell (GSC) function in animals. This international joint research consisted of constructing an in vitro live-imaging system for spermatogenesis, developing the method to analyze epigenetic regulation of spermatogenesis, and encouraging and supporting tight interaction with oversea researchers through international meetings. This research grant enabled us to establish a novel world-leading research community.
