Testicular descent: INSL3, testosterone, genes and the intrauterine milieu
Nature Reviews Urology, 2011Complete testicular descent is a sign of, and a prerequisite for, normal testicular function in adult life. The process of testis descent is dependent on gubernacular growth and reorganization, which is regulated by the Leydig cell hormones insulin-like peptide 3 (INSL3) and testosterone.

INSL3 in the benign hyperplastic and neoplastic human prostate gland
International Journal of Oncology, 2005The human prostate gland is a well known source of H1 and H2 relaxin but information is lacking on the expression and potential role of the INSL3 peptide hormone within the prostate gland. In the present study we have investigated the expression of human INSL3 in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), prostate intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN ...

Loss of Insl3 : A Potential Predisposing Factor for Testicular Torsion
Journal of Urology, 2010The testicular hormone Insl3 is critical for mouse gubernacular development. Knockout mice exhibit bilateral intra-abdominal cryptorchidism with absent gubernaculum. Prior studies described torsion of the vas deferens in Insl3 mutant mice. We performed a detailed anatomical analysis of the vas deferens and testis in Insl3 mutant mice to characterize ...

INSL3 Expression in Leydig Cell Hyperplasia and Leydig Cell Tumors
Applied Immunohistochemistry & Molecular Morphology, 2019Insulin-like 3 (INSL3) is a hormone produced by Leydig cells (LCs) and leads to physiological testicular descent during embryonic development. We investigated the expression of INSL3 by immunohistochemistry in normal LCs, in Leydig cell tumor (LCT) (n=17 including 15 testes and 2 ovaries) and in Leydig cell hyperplasia (LCH) (n=10).

Dynamics of INSL3 peptide expression in the rodent testis.
Biology of reproduction, 2010The Leydig cell-specific factor insulin-like peptide 3 (INSL3) is involved in testicular descent during embryo development, and has been suggested to regulate spermatogenesis and bone metabolism in the adult. Using a new, sensitive assay specific for rodent INSL3, we have mapped the secretion of INSL3 into peripheral blood in mice and during postnatal ...
