Generation of a hTERT-Immortalized Human Sertoli Cell Model to Study Transporter Dynamics at the Blood-Testis Barrier
The blood-testis barrier (BTB) formed by adjacent Sertoli cells (SCs) limits the entry of many chemicals into seminiferous tubules. Differences in rodent and human substrate-transporter selectivity or kinetics can misrepresent conclusions drawn using rodent in vitro models. Therefore, human in vitro...
