Dickkopf Homolog 3 (DKK3) Plays a Crucial Role Upstream of WNT/β-CATENIN Signaling for Sertoli Cell Mediated Regulation of Spermatogenesis

7 May 2013

Abstract excerpt

Testicular Sertoli cells (Sc) are main somatic component of seminiferous tubules that govern the differentiation of germ cells (Gc) and provide them physical support. Sc are the target of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and testosterone (T) which are known to regulate spermatogenesis. FSH and T levels in human and sub-human male primates remain high during infancy (4-6 months post birth), similar to those...
