Fertility preservation through gonadal cryopreservation

Abstract: Fertility preservation is an area of immense interest in today's society. The most effective and established means of fertility preservation is cryopreservation of gametes (sperm and oocytes) and embryos. Gonadal cryopreservation is yet another means for fertility preservation, especially if the gonadal function is threatened by premature menopause, gonadotoxic cancer treatment, surgical castration, or diseases. It can also aid in the preservation of germplasm of animals that die before attaining sexual maturi… Show more

“…Like the cryopreservation of whole gonads, cryopreservation of excised testicular or ovarian tissue pieces has recently emerged as a viable means of preserving germplasm from prepubertal and sexually mature animals. Methods have been developed to slow freeze or vitrify whole, hemi-, pieces or follicles from ovaries as well as whole, hemi-or pieces of testes (Devi and Goel, 2016). Preservation of those tissues in those formats has been undertaken in human, wildlife, non-human primates, domesticated pets, rodents and aquatic species (Dupré et al, 2016;Pšenička et al, 2016), insects (Fukumori et al, 2017;A.…”

“…There are reports of successful cryopreservation of immature testicular tissues in goat [99], pig [100] [101], cattle [102], and sheep [103]. However, it is important to note that the developmental stage of the testis plays an important role in the cryopreservation and subsequently on the semen product [104]. Successful cryopreservation of gonadal tissue is an important factor that guarantees fertility preservation [93].…”

“…Preservation of testicular tissue is complex due to the variety of cells, including spermatogonia and spermatocytes, which are primary cells leading to mature sperm cells during spermatogenesis. 15 In addition to preserving the histomorphology, DNA damage must be prevented while developing new preservation approaches. A loss in DNA integrity can lead to infertility in the parent as well as the future offspring.…”
