Abstract
Using polyclonal antibodies against a 13 KD human testicular inhibin, immunocytochemical localization studies were carried out in marmoset monkey testes. The pattern as well as the intensity of immunocytochemical staining for inhibin vary substantially during development. In early development (day 1 to 2 months) Leydig cells are the predominant cell types showing intense staining which reaches its nadir at 3 months. Subsequently both Sertoli cells as well as Leydig cells show equal intensity of inhibin staining. Testicular inhibin is likely to play a vital role in cell to cell communication.
