摘要：

Ultrastructural observations of rat seminiferous tubules show clearly the presence of plasma membrane junctions between Sertoli and germ cells in the basal and adluminal compartments. Results obtained from the freeze fracture and thin section techniques were correlated in order to elucidate the nature of these intercellular junctions. We suggest that these intercellular membrane specializations are gap junctions which occur within regions of plasma membrane that also exhibit adherenslike modifications. © 1979.
