## Abstract The primary function of testicular Leydig cells is the production of androgens to promote sexual differentiation in the fetus, secondary sexual maturation at puberty, and spermatogenesis in the adult. The fetal and postnatal (adult) populations of Leydig cells differ morphologically and
An early student of the development of temperature control in birds was W. F. Edwards who, in 1824, divided the young into two groups, those with (precocial) and those without (altricial) temperature regulation at hatching (Pembrey, 1895). Toward the end of the nineteenth centurF, Pembrey, Gordan an
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) and transforming growth factor-a (TGF-a) regulate branching morphogenesis of fetal mouse submandibular gland (SMG) rudiments in vitro. The EGF system (EGF, TGF-a, and their shared receptor, EGFR) also regulates expression of integrins and their ligands in the extracellu
