The Neuroendocrine Leydig Cells and their Stem Cell Progenitors, the Pericytes
The Leydig cells of the testis represent the main source of androgens. The idea of Leydig cells as endocrine cells has been the leading characteristic of this interesting cell population till now. Our studies of the last 2 decades allowed us to reveal a n
