r2d2 Posted March 25, 2022 Report Posted March 25, 2022 Researchers at the University of British Columbia have developed a technique that lets them 3D print human testicular cells into a hollow tubular structure that mimics the seminiferous tubules found in the testicles. The printed structures are showing encouraging signs that they may be able to produce viable sperm, and the researchers are still working to bring this outcome to fruition. The technology may provide a path to conception for men with fertility issues that are currently difficult or impossible to treat. Infertility can be a huge burden for those that wish to have children. With medical advances, there are now viable treatment options for many people, but some forms of infertility are particularly difficult to treat. “Infertility affects 15 per cent of couples and male factors are a contributing cause in at least half those cases,” said Ryan Flannigan, a researcher involved in this latest study.
