Because one of the functions of members of the aldo-keto reductase superfamily is to detoxify harmful carbonyl compounds, an intrinsic function of AR in Sertoli cells may be to catalyze the reduction of cytotoxic metabolites, such as lipid peroxidation products and steroid hormones, which are produced during spermatogenesis.
CAG repeat length of the androgen receptor gene in Japanese males with cryptorchidism.

The expansion of the CAG repeats in exon 1 of the androgen receptor gene is unlikely to constitute a major cause of cryptorchidism, and there was no significant difference between the two groups.
