Solution

The correct option is C Sertoli cells
Androgen-binding protein (ABP) is a glycoprotein (beta-globulin) produced by the Sertoli cells. Through its binding activity, ABP may play a role in spermatogenesis and epididymal sperm maturation by enhancing the local concentration of androgens around the germinal cells and the male gametes.
