Apoptosis: its importance in spermatogenic dysfunction

Edward D Kim et al. Urol Clin North Am. 2002 Nov.

Abstract

Apoptosis, spontaneous programmed cell death, has recently generated great interest in several areas of investigation, including infertility. Selective sperm cell death also seems to be a component of normal spermatogenesis. A better understanding of this process may lead to the development of new strategies to treat intrinsic testicular failure.
