Exploring the role of mononuclear phagocytes in the epididymis

Exploring the role of mononuclear phagocytes in the epididymis

The onslaught of foreign antigens carried by spermatozoa into the epididymis, an organ that has not demonstrated immune privilege, a decade or more after the establishment of central immune tolerance presents a unique biological challenge. Historically, the physical confinement of spermatozoa to the...
