Descripción
The definition of male hypogonadism used in adult endocrinology is not fully applicable to paediatrics. A clear understanding of the developmental physiology of the hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis is essential for the comprehension of the pathogenesis of hypogonadal states in boys and for the establishment of adequate definitions and classifications in paediatric ages. This is particularly true for central hypogonadism, usually called hypogonadotropic in adults. Because childhood is a period characterised by a physiological state of low gonadotropin and testosterone production, these markers of hypogonadism typically used in adult endocrinology result uninformative in the child. This review is focused on the physiological importance of prepubertal Sertoli cell markers ?anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and inhibin B? and of the intratesticular actions of FSH and testosterone during early infancy and the first stages of pubertal development. We discuss the role of FSH in regulating the proliferation of Sertoli cells ?the main determinant of prepubertal testicular volume? and the secretion of AMH and inhibin B. We also address how intratesticular testosterone concentrations have different effects on the seminiferous tubule function in early infancy and during pubertal development.
