What is the function of androgen-binding protein?
transport androgens in blood
transport androgens across the blood-testis barrier
provides positive feedback for the release of luteinizing hormone
elevating the levels of androgens in the lumen of seminiferous tubules
provides negative feedback for the release of follicle stimulating hormone
a.transport androgens in blood
b.transport androgens across the blood-testis barrier
c.provides positive feedback for the release of luteinizing hormone
d.elevating the levels of androgens in the lumen of seminiferous tubules
e.provides negative feedback for the release of follicle stimulating hormone
Explanation / Answer
d) elevating the levels of androgens in the lumen of seminiferous tubules.
Androgen binding proteins are secreted by sertoli cells of seminiferous tubules and bind to testosterone and 17-beta-estradiol and make them less lipophilic and become concentrated within the luminal fluid of seminiferous tubules.
