Zebrafish Testicular Feeder Cells (ZtA6-4)
ZtA6 cells are derived from spontaneous tumor-like hypertropheied testis isolated from albino-type (alb-1/alb-1) zebrafish. Clones were analyzed for the expression of the Sertoli cell marker (Sox9a), the germ cell marker (Vas), and the Wilm’s tumor suppressor marker (WT1). 12 clones were derived and have distinctive properties and are available.
ZtA6-4 cells are clone 4 which has high phagocytic ability compared to the other clones derived from the ZtA6 cell line. The expression of Sox9a and Vas were observed, but WT1 expression was absent. It is able to support the differentiation of germ cells into functional sperm for in vitro fertilization, thus is a suitable tool for research in in vitro fertilization and vertebrate spermatogenesis.
