متن کاملHormonal regulation of spermatogenesis in primates and man: insights for development of the male hormonal contraceptive.
A better understanding of the hormonal regulation of spermatogenesis may provide new avenues for management of human infertility, and development of safe and reversible contraceptives. Although much basic work must be conducted in lower mammals, primarily rodents, concepts must, at some stage, be tested for their relevance to humans. In this review, we will draw together existing data in humans...
