• Vinclozolin induces an increase in leydig cell tumors in rats.
• It also acts as a measure of Leydig cell function, particularly in older males.
• Matthew Phillip Hardy (1957-2007) was an American reproductive biologist who has made fundamental contributions in Leydig cell differentiation and function.
• LH insensitivity, which results in Leydig cell hypoplasia in males, and FSH insensitivity, are conditions of insensitivity to LH and FSH, respectively, caused by loss-of-function mutations in their respective signaling receptors.
• The TDS hypothesis proposes that testicular dysgenesis, which has various primary causes, can lead to abnormalities in Sertoli and/or Leydig cell function.

• Reinke crystals are rare in normal testes, but are found in approximately 1/3 of all Leydig cell tumours.
• Testicular tumors such as Leydig cell tumors, Sertoli cell tumors (such as in Peutz–Jeghers syndrome) and hCG-secreting choriocarcinoma may result in rapid-onset gynecomastia by causing excess production of estrogen.
• Adrenomyeloneuropathy is another example of a disease affecting the Leydig cell.
• Rare AFP-secreting tumor types include carcinoma in a mixed Müllerian tumor. The Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor, which itself is rare, rarely secretes AFP.
• Rat studies investigating the carcinogenicity of PFASs reported significant correlation with liver adenomas, Leydig cell tumors of the testis and pancreatic acinar cell tumors and dietary PFOA consumption.

• In situ ligand binding studies have shown that 125I inhibin βA binds specifically to Leydig cells throughout rat testis development.
• These cells are called Leydig cells and they are found in the testes.
