Transplantations. Transplantations were performed in GFP− busulfan- and CdCl2-treated mice using SSCs from 5- to 7-day-old GFP+ mice and/or RFP+ MSCs. SSCT spermatogonial stem cell transplantation (n = 10), MSCT mesenchymal stem cell transplantation (n = 10), MS-SSCT transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells together with spermatogonial stem cells (n = 10), MSi-SSCT transplantation of TGFß1-treated mesenchymal stem cells together with spermatogonial stem cells (n = 10). Control (n = 5) mice received busulfan and CdCl2 but were not transplanted. Decapeptyl (4.26 mg/kg) was injected subcutaneously 1 week before CdCl2 injection and secondly 1 week before transplantations
