Bustos Obregón, Eduardo; Esponda, Pedro; Sarabia, Luis (Universidad de la Frontera, 2006)The spermatogenesis is regulated by the hypotalamus-hypophysis gonadal axis, and the androgens play a fundamental role in their last stages. The administration of the antiandrogen flutamide interferes with the function of ...
