Studies of Spermatogenesis and Steroid Metabolism in Cultures of Human Testicular Tissue

  • Chapter
The Human Testis

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 10))

Abstract

Study of the physiology of any organ in vivo is complicated by numerous interactions taking place within a living organism, and attempts to identify factors controlling testicular functions have been faced with a similar problem. Thus, while it has been established that pituitary gonadotropins play an integral part in the control of testicular physiology, the specific role of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) or luteinizing hormone (LH), as well as the role of other factors in the spermatogenic and steroidogenic functions of the testis have not been clearly defined.
