MCP-1 up-regulates Leydig cell gene expression in vitro. Seminiferous tubules were treated with MCP-1 (0, 1, 10, and 100 ng/mL) from day 7 to 14 of culture. a-i: the mRNA levels of Lhcgr, Scarb1, Star, Cyp11a1, Hsd3b1, Cyp17a1, Hsd17b3, Hsd11b1, and Insl3. Rsp16 served as the internal control. Mean ± SEM, n = 6, *P < 0.05 designates significant difference when compared to the control
