  1. sertoli's cell

    Sertoli cells, also known as nurse cells, are a type of cell found in the testicles of males. They are located within the seminiferous tubules, which are the specific site of sperm production. Sertoli cells play a crucial role in the process of spermatogenesis by nourishing and protecting the developing sperm cells. They also help to regulate the process by releasing hormones and growth factors. Additionally, Sertoli cells form a blood-testis barrier, controlling the passage of substances between the bloodstream and the testicular tissues.
