|---|---|
| Sertoli cell | <pathology> Tall columnar cells found in the mammalian testis closely associated with developing spermatocytes and spermatids. Probably provide appropriate microenvironment for sperm differentiation and phagocytose degenerate sperm. (18 Nov 1997) |
| sertoli cell tumour | A rare benign tumour of the testis that histologically resembles the foetal testis. There are three varieties: diffuse stromal, mixed (stromal and epithelial), and tubular (epithelial). Sertoli cells in the epithelial elements may produce oestrogen and cause feminization. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sertoli cells | Elongated cells in the tubules of the testis to which the spermatids become attached. They provide support, protection, and, apparently, nutrition until the spermatids become transformed into mature spermatozoa. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Sertoli's cells | Elongated cell's in the seminiferous tubules to which spermatids are attached during spermiogenesis; they secrete androgen-binding protein and establish the blood-testis barrier by forming tight junctions with adjacent Sertoli's cell's. Synonym: nurse cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Sertoli's columns | See: Sertoli's cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Sertoli-cell-only syndrome | <syndrome> The absence from the seminiferous tubules of the testes of germinal epithelium, Sertoli cells alone being present; there is sterility due to azoospermia but no other sexual abnormality, Leydig cells are normal, and the output of gonadotrophins in the urine is increased; probably represents one form of seminiferous tubule dysgenesis. Synonym: Del Castillo syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sertoli-leydig cell tumour | An ovarian tumour usually of low-grade malignancy occurring most frequently in the third and fourth decades, with 75% seen in women under 40. It is rare, representing less than .02% of ovarian cancers. The tumour typically produces androgens with virilization being noted in 70-85% of the patients. (holland et al., cancer medicine, 3d ed, p1684) (12 Dec 1998) |

| Sertoli cell |
Cells in the testis lining the testicular tubules that nurture the developing sperm cells; responsible in fetal life for the production of anti-M?lerian hormone, which stops the male fetus from developing fallopian tubes, a uterus and a vagina. A source of estradiol in men.

| Sertoli c.’s |
elongated cells in the seminiferous tubules, to which the spermatids become attached; they provide support, protection, and possibly nutrition until the spermatids become transformed into mature spermatozoa. Called also sustentacular c's, nurse or nursing c's, and trophocytes.

| Sertoli cell t. |
androblastoma (def. 1).
Ãâó: www.mercksource.com/pp/us/cns/cns_health_library.j...
|
| Sertoli-cellonly s. |
congenital absence of the germinal epithelium of the testes, so that the seminiferous tubules contain only Sertoli cells and the testes are smaller than normal; there is azoospermia with elevated titers of follicle-stimulating hormone and sometimes of luteinizing hormone. Called also del Castillo's s. and germinal or germinal cell aplasia.
