Role of cell adhesion molecule nectin-3 in spermatid development.

Genes to cells : devoted to molecular & cellular mechanisms - 1 Sept 2006

Abstract excerpt

Seminiferous epithelia of the testes contain two types of intercellular junctions: Sertoli-Sertoli junctions and Sertoli-spermatid junctions. The former junctions are equipped with tight and adherens junctions while the latter junctions are not. Ca2+ -independent immunoglobulin-like cell-cell adhesion molecules, nectin-2 and nectin-3, asymmetrically localize at the Sertoli cell side and at the spermatid side of...
