In vitro data have indicated that nitric oxide (NO) inhibits Leydig cell testosterone production, suggesting that NO may play a role in the suppression of steroidogenesis and spermatogenic function during inflammation. Consequently, we investigated e

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists regulate testicular interstitial fluid (tIF) volume, most probably via specific receptors on Leydig cells. The aim of this study was to confirm the interaction between GnRH and Leydig cells in regulation

While it is well known that serious illness and inflammation reduce male fertility, the mechanisms involved are poorly understood. In adult male rats, a single injection of lipopolysaccharide at doses that induced either mild or severe inflammation,

Studies on the effect of rat testicular interstitial fluid (IF) on T-cell function have reported both stimulatory and inhibitory actions. Specific cytokines produced within the testis, particularly interleukin-1 (IL-1) and transforming growth factor

Regulation of T-cell traffic and function in the adult rat testis was assessed following treatment with the specific Leydig cell cytoxin, ethane dimethane sulfonate (EDS), and s.c. testosterone implants to prevent Leydig cell recovery. The distributi

The rat testis is considered to be an immunologically privileged site because of its reduced capacity to support antigen-specific immune responses. To understand this phenomenon, it is essential to characterize both the lymphocyte subpopulations norm

The objective of this study was to investigate the role of androgens and nonandrogenic Leydig cell products in maintaining Leydig cell and macrophage numbers in the testis of the adult rat. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats received Silastic implants co
