Testis (C0039597) | |
|---|---|
| Definition (MSH) | The male gonad containing two functional parts: the SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES for the production and transport of male germ cells (SPERMATOGENESIS) and the interstitial compartment containing LEYDIG CELLS that produce ANDROGENS. |
| Definition (UWDA) | Lobular organ the parenchyma of which consists of seminiferous tubules which communicate with the duct of the epididymis. Examples: There only two instances, right testis and left testis. |
| Definition (CSP) | male gonad; either of the paired glands normally located in the scrotum; each testis is surround by an outer mesothelial layer and an inner white capsule and is composed of compartments which contain the seminiferous tubules where the spermatozoa are produced; specialized interstital Leydig cells secrete androgens. |
| Definition (NCI) | (TES-tih-kuls) The two egg-shaped glands found inside the scrotum. They produce sperm and male hormones. Also called testes. |
| Definition (NCI) | Either of the paired male reproductive glands that produce the male germ cells and the male hormones. |
