Sertoli cells are involved in the control of spermatogenesis. In adult animals, the Sertoli cell stocks, fixed before puberty, are highly correlated with those of the germ cells. Some factors influencing Sertoli cell stock formation have been analyzed: 1) Early hemicastration of impuberal animals showed that the proliferative activities of the Sertoli and the germ cells before puberty, rather t...
Fetal androgen disruption, induced by the administration of anti-androgen flutamide (0.4, 2, and 10 mg/kg day) causes a long-term apoptosis in testicular germ cells in adult male rat offspring. One of the questions raised by this observation is the role of the Sertoli cells in the adult germ cell apoptotic process. It is shown here that Sertoli cells originating from 15-day-old rats treated in ...
There are numerous types of junctions in the seminiferous epithelium which are integrated with, and critically dependent on the Sertoli cell cytoskeleton. These include the basal tight junctions between Sertoli cells that form the main component of the blood-testis barrier, the basal ectoplasmic specializations (basal ES) and basal tubulobulbar complexes (basal TBC) between Sertoli cells; as we...
Whereas spermatogonia stem cells continually divide to populate the testis with developing germ cells, the major supporter of this process, the Sertoli cell, ceases to proliferate shortly after birth in rodents and during puberty in higher primates including men. Because Sertoli cells are capable of supporting only a fixed number of germ cells, the timing of Sertoli cell exit from the cell cycl...
We determined the functional role of the Sertoli cell glucocorticoid receptor (GR) in vivo using a transgenic Cre-loxP approach to conditionally disrupt GR expression. Sertoli cell GR knockout (SCGRKO) was shown by absent Sertoli cell-specific GR immunolocalization and reduced levels of glucocorticoid-responsive Stc1 and Tsc22d3 mRNA in SCGRKO relative to control testes. Adult SCGRKO testes exh...
Rat and human Sertoli cells in culture secrete a growth factor, Sertoli cell secreted growth factor (SCSGF). The aims of the present study were (1) to evaluate other testicular cell types as additional sources of SCSGF, as well as their paracrine effect, and (2) to study the hormonal regulation of SCSGF secretion using an A431 cell growth assay. The Sertoli cell was the only testicular cell typ...
We Describe a case of ovarian serous cystadenoma having Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor, well differentiated, in the cystic septum. Well differentiated Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor coexisting with other tumor, including serous tumor, has not yet been described. In all cases of Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor with heterologous components or other tumors, the androblastomatous components are intermediately or p...
Sertoli and Leydig cells, the two major somatic cell types in the testis, have different morphologies and functions. Both are essential for gonad development and spermatogenesis. However, whether these cells are derived from the same progenitor cells and the mechanism regulating the differentiation between these two cell types during gonad development remains unclear. A previous study showed th...
Sertoli cells regulate differentiation and development of the testis and are essential for maintaining adult testis function. To model the effects of dysregulating Sertoli cell number during development or aging, we have used acute diphtheria toxin-mediated cell ablation to reduce Sertoli cell population size. Results show that the size of the Sertoli cell population that forms during developme...
The critical influence of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) on male fertility relates both to its impact on Sertoli cell proliferation in perinatal life and to its influence on the synthesis of Sertoli cell-derived products essential for germ cell survival and function in the developing adult testis. The nature and timing of this shift of germ cells to their reliance on specific Sertoli cell-d...
