Relationship of transcriptional markers to Leydig cell number in the mouse testis.
<h4>Objectives</h4>The current study aims to identify markers that would reflect the number of Leydig cells present in the testis, to help determine whether labour-intensive methods such as stereology are necessary. We used our well-characterised Sertoli cell ablation model in which we h...
