Lpithelioid cells include which of the following:
Ans. d. Interstitial cells of LeydigIn all mammalian species, Leydig cells are located in the interstitial compament of the testis, between and surrounding the seminiferous tubules. Human Leydig cells are epithelioid and ovoid or polygonal.""The mammalian Leydig cell is a polyhedral epithelioid cell with a single eccentrically located ovoid nucleus. Frequently, lipofuscin pigment and rod-shaped crystal-like structures 3 to 20 micrometres in diameter (Reinke's crystals) are found. These inclusions have no known function, are found in less than half of all Leydig cell tumors, but serve to clinch the diagnosis of a Leydig cell tumor.
