The Production of Androgen Binding Protein by Sertoli Cells

  • Chapter
Hormone Binding and Target Cell Activation in the Testis

Part of the book series: Current Topics in Molecular Endocrinology ((CTME,volume 1))

Abstract

Studies designed to elucidate the biochemical mechanism of action of FSH in the testis have long been hampered by two major problems. First, the precise target cell affected by this gonadotrophin was difficult to pinpoint because of the heterogeneity of cells within the germinal epithelium. Secondly, no specific endpoint for the acute effect of FSH was available.
