Question
Explain the role of hormones in spermatogenesis.
Explain
Solution
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) stimulates the anterior pituitary to release luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH).
- LH functions at the Leydig cells, promoting the synthesis and secretion of androgens. Androgens stimulate spermatogenesis.
- FSH influences Sertoli cells, stimulating the secretion of factors that facilitate spermiogenesis.
