Rooster Testicular Germ Cells and Epididymal Sperm Contain P450 Aromatase1

1 Dec 1995

Abstract excerpt

We recently found that cytochrome P450 aromatase (P450arom) is present in germ cells of the mammalian testis and is capable of converting androgens to estrogens in the male reproductive tract. The objective of the present study was to determine whether testicular germ cells and epididymal sperm of an avian species are also capable of synthesizing estrogen. P450arom was localized in the rooster testis and...
