Sertoli cell signaling by Desert hedgehog regulates the male germline.

Current biology : CB - 1 Mar 1996

Bitgood M J, Shen L, McMahon A P

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In mammals, testis development is initiated in the embryo in response to the expression of the sex determining gene, Sry, in Sertoli cell precursors. Subsequently, Sertoli cells are thought to play a central role in male-specific cell interactions, including those that occur during spermatogenesis. However, the molecular nature of these interactions is poorly understood. Desert hedgehog (Dhh) encodes...
