  • Title: Gap junctions between gonocytes and epithelial cells in the sex cords of the one day old rat. A freeze fracture study.
    Author: McGinley DM, Posalaky Z.
    Journal: J Submicrosc Cytol; 1986 Jan; 18(1):75-84. PubMed ID: 3959163.
    Abstract:
    In this report we document the presence of gap junctions between gonocytes and epithelial cells in the sex cords of the one day old rat. Morphologically these junctions are comparable to those seen between germ and Sertoli cells in the adult rat seminiferous epithelium. The possibility that gap junctions the adult rat seminiferous epithelium. The possibility that gap junctions between germinal and supporting elements in the one day old rat and in the adult have similar functional roles is also discussed. day old rat and in the adult have similar functional roles is also discussed.
