Neonatal testis organoids sertoli germ cells

Caption

Testicular organoids generated from mice pups and incubated in a dish for 21 days. Sertoli cells, which are the cells responsible for the formation of the tubules in the testicle, appear in red and germ cells, which will produce the sperm cells, appear in green. Germ cells always stay close proximity to Sertoli cells as they support them during the formation of sperm cells.
