The Molecular Signature of Human Testicular Peritubular Cells Revealed by Single-Cell Analysis
Peritubular cells of the human testis form a small compartment surrounding the seminiferous tubules. They are crucial for sperm transport, and they emerge as contributors to the spermatogonial stem cell niche. They are among the least known cell types of the human body. We employed single-cell RNA s...
