terminal epithelial cell of testis [FBbt_00057014]

Epithelial cell of the terminal epithelium of the testis. These cells engulf the head cyst cell of a spermatid cyst during coiling, so anchoring the head of the coiling spermatid. These cells also phagocytose the waste bags and cyst cells left over at the end of spermatogenesis.
