Abstract Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs)，the only stem cells that are capable of transmitting genetic information to subsequent generations in adult animals，have abilities to self-renew and differentiate into spermatozoa. Therefore, SSCs are not only the study object of stem cell biology, but also the valuable resource of in vitro spermatogenesis, gene analysis and functional genomics. The present paper reported the study history and recent progress of in vitro culture for SSCs, and summarized the influence factors of SSC in vitro culture and maintenance mechanisms of SSC self-renewal.
