The foundation for male fertility is provided by spermatogonia, which form in the postnatal mammalian testis. The developmental origin of spermatogonia was unclear until the midtwentieth century–before then, there was a debate among scientists studying different vertebrate model organisms (eg mice, birds, amphibians) whether spermatogonia originated from prospermatogonia (also termed gonocytes) or from somatic Sertoli cells. This debate was settled, at least in rodents, in a landmark study in 1957 by Yves Clermont and Bernard Perey (Clermont & Perey, 1957). They performed quantitative histological analyses of the germ and somatic cell populations in testes from fetal and postnatal rats and concluded that prospermatogonia divide to form spermatogonia, while the Sertoli cell population expands until postnatal day 15 before terminally differentiating to support ongoing spermatogenesis.We became interested in this 1889 manuscript by Dr. Friedrich Hermann entitled Postfetal Histiogenesis of the Mouse Testicle up to Puberty based on a reference in the aforementioned Clermont-Perey study (Clermont & Perey, 1957). They stated,“Hermann gave a brief histological account of the development of the [seminiferous] tubule in support of his opinion [that prospermatogonia produce spermatogonia]”. If true, then Hermann’s manuscript describes one of the earliest studies providing evidence for the continuity of the
