Sertoli cell ultrastructure was compared in men with testicular disorders (
hypospermatogenesis; germ cell aplasia) and men with normal testes to determine if any …

The purpose of this study was to examine the fine structure of Sertoli cells in patients with a
severe or complete depletion of germ cells. In normal seminiferous tubules Sertoli cells are …

Sertoli cells are present in the seminiferous tubules of the male gonads, the testes. They
were first observed in 1865 by a young Italian physician Enrico Sertoli and named after him …

Sertoli cells in testicular biopsies from 7 patients with Sertoli‐cell‐only syndrome, 8 patients
who had been treated with cyclophosphamide for testicular neoplasia, 8 patients with …

During the past decade the attention of many investigators has been directed to the role of
the Sertoli cell in the spermatogenic process. An impressive array of functions has been …

The relationship between specific types of germinal cells in testicular biopsy specimens and
serum FSH levels has been investigated in 49 men with infertility. Testicular biopsies were …

As revealed by light microscopical investigations the human Sertoli cell presents different
appearances according to the pattern of infranuclear cytoplasmic inclusions. Although two or …

Ten years ago, biopsy of the testis formed an important part of the investigation of an infertile
male. Testicular biopsy enabled assessment of the state of the seminiferous epithelium in …

Ultractructural study of seminiferous tubules in ageing men revealed a varying degree of
spermatogenetic arrest associated with changes in the Sertoli cells. Approximately half of …

Spermatogenesis is the complex process whereby relatively undifferentiated germinal cells
undergo biochemical and morphological modifications to form spermatozoa. Sertoli cells are …
