Abstract

Highlights: [•] LPS reduces the expression of GDNF in Sertoli cells and its conditioned media but not BMP4 or SCF. [•] LPS can decrease the expression of SSC self-renewal genes and increase the expression of SSC differentiation genes. [•] LPS can also depress the expression of GDNF downstream genes.
