E4 Transcription Factor 1 (E4F1) Regulates Sertoli Cell Proliferation and Fertility in Mice
In the mammalian testes, Sertoli cells are the only somatic cells in the seminiferous tubules that provide structural, nutritional and regulatory support for developing spermatogenic cells.

RNF20 is required for male fertility through regulation of H2B ubiquitination in the Sertoli cells
Background Spermatogenesis depends on the supporting of the Sertoli cells and their communications with germ cells. However, the regulation of crosstalk between the Sertoli cells and germ cells remains unclear. Results In this report, we used conditional

Role of Testosterone in Maintaining Polarity and Differentiated State of Sertoli Cells [PDF]
Differentiation and migration of spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) from the basal to the adluminal compartment of the seminiferous tubules require a well-specialised scaffold created by a well-developed cytoskeleton in the large cytoplasm of the Sertoli ...

Direct action through the Sertoli cells is essential for androgen stimulation of spermatogenesis [PDF]
Androgens act to stimulate spermatogenesis through androgen receptors (AR) on the Sertoli cells and peritubular myoid cells (PTM). Specific ablation of the AR in either cell type will cause a severe disruption of spermatogenesis.

Sertoli Cell Immune Regulation: A Double-Edged Sword
The testis must create and maintain an immune privileged environment to protect maturing germ cells from autoimmune destruction. The establishment of this protective environment is due, at least in part, to Sertoli cells.

Spermatogenesis and sertoli cell activity in mice lacking Sertoli cell receptors for follicle stimulating hormone and androgen [PDF]
Spermatogenesis in the adult male depends on the action of FSH and androgen. Ablation of either hormone has deleterious effects on Sertoli cell function and the progression of germ cells through spermatogenesis.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in mammalian spermatogenesis, which is highly dependent on Sertoli cells. However, the functions and mechanisms of miRNAs in regulating human Sertoli cells remain largely unknown.

Apigenin induces oxidative stress in mouse Sertoli TM4 cells [PDF]
Background and Aim: Apigenin (API) is an estrogenic compound found in many plants. Sertoli cells reside in the testis and are a key target of environmental toxicants.
