Human efferent ductules and epididymis display unique cell lineages with motile and primary cilia

30 Aug 2024

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Previous research has illustrated the role of cilia as mechanical and sensory antennae in various organs within the mammalian male reproductive system across different developmental stages. Despite their significance in both organ development and homeostasis, primary cilia in the human male reproductive excurrent duct have been overlooked due to limited access to human specimens. OBJECTIVE: This study...
