Production of 25-Hydroxycholesterol by Testicular Macrophages and Its Effects on Leydig Cells

Testicular macrophages secrete 25-hydroxycholesterol, which can be converted to testosterone by neighboring Leydig cells. The purposes of the present studies were to determine the mode of production of this oxysterol and its long-term effects on Leydig cells. Because oxysterols are produced both enz...
