Spermiation is the process by which mature spermatozoa are released from the testicular germ cells, specifically from the sertoli cells, into the seminiferous tubules of the testes. This process marks the final stage of spermatogenesis, the development of sperm cells from primitive germ cells.
During spermiation, the mature sperm cells are released from the sertoli cells and enter the lumina of the seminiferous tubules, where they are transported to the epididymis for further maturation and storage. From there, the sperm cells are released into the vas deferens and eventually make their way to the ejaculatory ducts, where they are mixed with seminal fluid and other fluids to form semen.
Spermiation is a critical process in the production of fertile sperm and is regulated by hormones such as testosterone and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). Any disruptions in this process can lead to infertility or subfertility.
