Inhoudsopgave
Waar zitten de cellen van leydig?
Cellen in de testes waar testosteron wordt gemaakt. In de instertitiële cellen van leydig, gelegen in het stroma tussen de zaadbuisjes van de testes, wordt onder invloed van het luteïniserend hormoon (LH) het geslachtshormoon testosteron geproduceerd.
Waar liggen de cellen van sertoli?
Bepaald type cellen in de zaadballen. Sertoli-cellen bevinden zich in de zaadbuisjes van de testes en spelen een rol bij de voeding van de spermatozoïde.
Wat scheiden testes af?
Bij de mens groeien de testes aan de dorsale wand van de peritoneale holte (rugzijde van de buikholte). Later dalen ze af (descensus testicolorum). Hierbij voeren ze de zaadstreng (ductus deferens) met zich mee naar beneden.
What is the function of Abp in human sperm?
In these species it is thought to function to concentrate androgens in the seminiferous tubules and deliver the steroid hormone to developing spermatocytes and spermatids. ABP is now known to be a homolog of sex hormone binding globulin, SHBG, the serum binding protein for androgens and estrogens ( section III.D, previously).
What is the role of ABP and DHT in spermatogenesis?
Because ABP binds to T and DHT, these hormones are made less lipophilic and become concentrated within the luminal fluid of the seminiferous tubules. The higher levels of these hormones enable spermatogenesis in the seminiferous tubules and sperm maturation in the epididymis.
What is androgen binding protein (ABP)?
( Discuss) Proposed since January 2022. Androgen-binding protein ( ABP) is a glycoprotein (beta- globulin) produced by the Sertoli cells in the seminiferous tubules of the testis that binds specifically to testosterone (T), dihydrotestosterone (DHT), and 17-beta- estradiol .
