Isolation of Sertoli, Leydig, and spermatogenic cells from the mouse testis.
A thorough understanding of the events during mammalian spermatogenesis requires studying specific molecular signatures of individual testicular cell populations as well as their interaction in co-cultures. However, most purification techniques to isolate specific testicular cell populations are time-consuming, require large numbers of animals, and/or are only able to isolate a few cell types. ...
متن کاملP-74: Crocin Repopulate The Leydig and Sertoli Cells in Testis of Cyclophosphamide Treated Adult Mice
Background: Increases in the survival rate of men treated with chemotherapeutic drugs and their desire to have children precipitate concerns about the effects of these drugs on germ cells. This study performed to evaluation of protective effects of crocin in oxidative stress induced by cyclophosphamide (CP) on testis. Materials and Methods: Three groups (6 mice in each) of adult mice were used....
متن کاملSertoli Cells Maintain Leydig Cell Number and Peritubular Myoid Cell Activity in the Adult Mouse Testis
The Sertoli cells are critical regulators of testis differentiation and development. In the adult, however, their known function is restricted largely to maintenance of spermatogenesis. To determine whether the Sertoli cells regulate other aspects of adult testis biology we have used a novel transgenic mouse model in which Amh-Cre induces expression of the receptor for Diphtheria toxin (iDTR) s...
متن کاملDHT Germ cells Genital crest Testis Leydig Sertoli
Sex differentiation is a process that starts early during embryogenesis. In males, the SRY gene, located in the short arm of chromosome Y, encodes for the testis-determining factor, which causes the gonad to differentiate into testis. Testicular androgen synthesis by Leydig cells starts from the eighth week of development. It is initially stimulated by placental chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), an...
متن کاملStereological Quantitation of Leydig and Sertoli Cells in the Testis from Young and Old Men
One of the newer stereological methods, the optical fractionator, was applied to the study of the effects of ageing on the human testis. The estimated total number of Sertoli and Leydig cells per testis in men younger than 30 years were 430×10 (CV = SD/mean = 0.35) and 117×10 (CV = 0.53), respectively, while in men older than 50 years the estimated total Sertoli cell number was 266×10 (CV = 0.4...
