Stem cells survive oncotherapy & can regenerate non-functional gonads: A paradigm shift for oncofertility
A large proportion of patients who survive cancer are rendered infertile as an unwanted side effect of oncotherapy. Currently accepted approaches for fertility preservation involve banking eggs/sperm/embryos or ovarian/testicular tissue before oncotherapy for future use. Such approaches are invasive...
