Name the hormones involved in regulation of spermatogenesis.
Hormones secrete FSH and LH. FSH stimulates the Sertoli cells to secrete Androgen-Binding Protein. LH stimulates the Leydig cells to secrete testosterone. Testosterone and Androgen-Binding Protein stimulate Sustentacular cells (Sertoli) to secrete inhibin, which inhibits FSH secretion and inhibits sperm production. Testosterone has an antagonistic effect that reduces GnRH. Spermatogenesis. A secondary spermatocyte is 2n. The transformation of spermatids into spermatozoa is called spermiogenesis. The acrosome contains degradative enzymes to penetrate the egg. The midpiece contains many mitochondria to help power the sperm.
