They produce hormone 'testosterone'.It should be released to blood.

Yes. They do.
Correct. Waste products, such as carbon dioxide and metabolic byproducts, diffuse from the cell into the surrounding interstitial fluid. From there, they can enter the capillaries, where they are then transported through the bloodstream to be eliminated from the body.

DefinitionSertoli-Leydig cell tumor is a rare cancer of the ovaries. The cancer cells produce and release a male sex hormone.Alternative NamesArrhenoblastoma; AndroblastomaSymptomsThe Sertoli cells are normally located in the male reproductive glands (the testes). They feed sperm cells. The Leydig cells, also located in the testes, release a male sex hormone called testosterone.In men, some cancers of the testes can start in the Sertoli and Leydig cells. These are considered types of testicular cancer.Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor is a cancer that starts in the female ovaries. The cancer cells produce and release a male sex hormone. This hormone may cause the woman to develop male physical characteristics (virilization), including facial hair and a deep voice.
There are blood capillaries close to all of the cells in our body, so that the cells can get all of the energy they need to survive.Blood capillaries are only one cell thick, so that nutrients and oxygen can pass through them easily.

The thin walled blood vessels are called capillaries.
capillaries, since they are only one cell wide.

The thickness of the capillaries is very thin, they are about one cell thick.
