Sertoli cells are regulated by the pituitary hormone known as-
- LH
- FSH
- GH
- Prolactin
Answer
(2) FSH
Solution
As per NCERT, at puberty GnRH from the hypothalamus stimulates the anterior pituitary to secrete LH and FSH.
⇒ LH acts on the Leydig cells and stimulates synthesis and secretion of androgens.
⇒ FSH acts on the Sertoli cells and stimulates secretion of some factors which help in spermiogenesis.
∴ Sertoli cells are regulated by FSH.
