Hormonal and cellular regulation of Sertoli cell anti-Müllerian hormone production in the postnatal mouse.
Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is secreted by immature testicular Sertoli cells. Clinical studies have demonstrated a negative correlation between serum AMH and testosterone in puberty but not in the neonatal period. We investigated AMH regulation using mouse models mimicking physiopathological situations observed in humans. In normal mice, intratesticular, not serum, testosterone repressed AMH s...
متن کاملParacrine regulation of Sertoli cell proliferation
The Sertoli cell is a highly differentiated somatic cell in the seminiferous epithelium of the testis. This cell is of prime importance for both testicular development and spermatogenesis. Sertoli cells proliferate up to the start of puberty and, due to their nursing functions, the final Sertoli cell number is well correlated to the amount of germ cells produced by the adult testis. The physiol...
متن کاملCell Growth and Differentiation1
Cyclic adenosine 3’,S’-monophosphate (cAMP) has been implicated in the control of placental function. The present investigation was designed to evaluate the actions of cAMP analogues on the control of rat placental development. Two model systems were used to assess the actions of cAMP in the placenta: 1) a rat placental cell line and 2) rat labyrinth placental explants. Elevation of intracellul...
متن کاملRegulation of Sertoli cell and germ cell differentation.
Unwanted childlessness affects approximately one in six couples worldwide. According to the World Health Organization, in nearly 40% of cases the cause can be attributed to the female, in 20% to the male, in 25% to both, and in 15% the cause remains unknown. The incidence of male factor infertility in the general population is approximately 7%. The majority of these men experience irreversible ...
متن کاملHormonal regulation of secondary cell wall formation.
Secondary cell walls (SCWs) have critical functional importance but also constitute a high proportion of the plant biomass and have high application potential. This is true mainly for the lignocellulosic constituents of the SCWs in xylem vessels and fibres, which form a structured layer between the plasma membrane and the primary cell wall (PCW). Specific patterning of the SCW thickenings contr...
