Desmosomes in the testis

1 Jan 2011

Abstract excerpt

Desmosomes are cell-cell junctions that link to cytoplasmic intermediate filaments, and they are known to mediate robust and stable adhesion in organs such as the skin and heart. Desmosomes are also present between apposing Sertoli cells at the blood-testis barrier, and between Sertoli cells and all germ cells up to, but not including, step 8 spermatids in the seminiferous epithelium. Unfortunately, they remain...
