Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The purpose of this minireview is to present information concerning the morphologic and functional relationship between testicular macrophages and Leydig cells. Although data concerning the negative influence of macrophage-derived products on testicular Leydig cells exist, this review is focused on the stimulatory influences thought to be involved in the physiologic interactions between these two diverse cell types.
