Androgen-dependent Sertoli cell proliferation as a target for endocrine disruptors relevant to human male reproductive health (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Scott, H., Hallmark, N., Saunders, P., Verhoeven, G., De Gendt, K., Hutchison, G., & Sharpe, R. Androgen-dependent Sertoli cell proliferation as a target for endocrine disruptors relevant to human male reproductive health.

Smoking by women during pregnancy can result in a 30–48% reduction in sperm count and testis size in the exposed offspring in adulthood, probably because of a decrease in the number of Sertoli cells. Until recently Sertoli cell proliferation was thou... Read More about Androgen-dependent Sertoli cell proliferation as a target for endocrine disruptors relevant to human male reproductive health.
