This table was prepared based on earlier reviews in references 59, 66 and additional references as detailed in the main text. This Table is not intended to be exhaustive, it only lists selected CT antigens pertinent to spermatogenesis based on their unique pattern of distribution (based on studies using immunohistochemistry, northern blotting or PCR) among selected germ cell types in the seminiferous epithelium of human testes from normal men.
