About Peter
Peter G. Stanton, PhD, is an Adjunct Associate Professor (Research) at Monash University and Head of the Male Fertility Regulation Laboratory at the Hudson Institute of Medical Research in Melbourne, Australia. He also serves as a senior lecturer, also referred to as Adjunct Senior Lecturer, in the Department of Molecular and Translational Sciences and Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Monash University. Stanton possesses an international reputation for his research on the molecular regulation of animal and human spermatogenesis, particularly focusing on the blood-testis barrier and Sertoli cell function in the adult testis. His work centers on the hormonal regulation of cell junctions in the testis as part of efforts to identify targets for male hormonal contraception. This includes investigations into cell junctions between Sertoli and germ cells, and between Sertoli cells, with emphasis on their regulation by gonadotrophins. Stanton has applied his skills in biomolecular separation and characterisation to assess serum and testicular steroids and hormones in rats and men during male hormonal contraception studies.
More recently, Stanton has utilized quantitative proteomics to discover new diagnostic markers and understand the aetiology of male infertility. He contributed to establishing a core-facility proteomics laboratory at the Hudson Institute of Medical Research and leads proteomic studies to identify contraceptive targets and diagnostic markers for male and female infertility conditions. He is involved in inhibin research. Stanton has authored 112 articles, reviews, and book chapters. Prominent publications include "Heat stress response of somatic cells in the testis" (2021), "Experimental Cryptorchidism Causes Chronic Inflammation and a Progressive Decline in Sertoli Cell and Leydig Cell Function in the Adult Rat Testis" (2021), "Regulation of the blood-testis barrier" (2016), "Mapping the testicular interstitial fluid proteome from normal rats" (2016), "Gonadotrophin suppression in men leads to a reduction in claudin-11 at the Sertoli cell tight junction" (2016), and "Spermiation" (chapter in book). He has supervised 10 PhD graduates, and his research is funded primarily by multiple program and project grants from the National Health and Medical Research Council of Australia.
