    The seminiferous tubules are bordered by a complex stratified epithelium composed of two unique populations of cells: spermatogenic cells that grow into spermatozoa and Sertoli cells that provide a supporting and nutritive function.

    • Spermatocytes are the cells that develop from the final spermatogonial division (B spermatogonia), from which spermatids, then spermatozoa with half the chromosomal complement of the original progenitor cell, are produced after the meiotic phase of spermatogenesis.
      • The spermatid is a haploid male gametid produced by secondary spermatocyte division. Because of meiosis, each spermatid only has half of the genetic material found in the original primary spermatocyte.
        These tasks include spermatogenesis control, structural and metabolic support of germ cells, sperm release, tubular fluid secretion for sperm transport, and the maintenance of a permeability barrier between interstitial and tubular compartments.
