Sertoli Cells: Methods and Protocols

This volume presents up-to-date methodologies and experimental approaches for studying somatic cells supporting spermatogenesis, called Sertoli cells, across different developmental stages of the male gonad. Chapters guide readers through protocols on applying primarily to the mammalian Sertoli cells, which are the most widely studied, but also covers techniques used in Sertoli cell research in non-mammalian vertebrates. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips for troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and practical, Sertoli Cells: Methods and Protocols aims to provide a comprehensive collection of laboratory protocols is intended to assist researchers seeking to understand the diverse and complex biology of Sertoli cells and their fundamental role in testicular development and spermatogenesis.
