Abstract
Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) has been recognized to play a paramount role in the regulation of spermatogenesis. However, its precise function and cellular site of action in the testis have not been clarified (1). Several morphologic and biochemical parameters are known to be affected by FSH. These effects have been more readily demonstrable in testes of immature or hypophysectomized animals compared to intact adults.
