Andrology: Evidence of β1 integrins and fibronectin on spermatogenic cells in human testis
1 Nov 1993
Abstract excerpt
Interactions between human spermatozoa and oocytes are an essential event in the process of fertilization. Cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions in somatic cells are mediated by adhesion molecules such as beta 1 integrins (very late antigens; VLA). Therefore, we investigated the expression of beta 1 integrins and the matrix proteins collagen IV, fibronectin and laminin in human testis by immunohistology....
