Role of the neonatal period of pituitary-testicular activity in germ cell proliferation and differentiation in the primate testis
24 Sept 2003
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The neonatal period of pituitary-testicular activity (NPTA) in human males has been hypothesized to play a role in germ cell proliferation and differentiation and to be defective in cryptorchid testes. The present study was carried out to establish in the marmoset if suppression of the NPTA, by treatment with a GnRH antagonist, results in impaired germ cell proliferation and/or differentiation....
