Characterisation of the lymphocyte cell subsets in the male reproductive tract
Characterisation of the lymphocyte cell subsets in the male reproductive tract is a Research Project for the Endocrinology and Immunophysiology Research Group, under the Centre for Reproductive Health.
Project Leader
A greater level of understanding of the properties of these cells and their cytokine/regulator production profiles has implications for obstructive azoospermia patients (patients who suffer infection or inflammation to the genital tract), development of male contraceptives targeting the genital tract, and for understanding and eventually treating chronic pelvic inflammatory syndromes.
