The purpose of this study was to examine the fine structure of Sertoli cells in patients with a
severe or complete depletion of germ cells. In normal seminiferous tubules Sertoli cells are …

As revealed by light microscopical investigations the human Sertoli cell presents different
appearances according to the pattern of infranuclear cytoplasmic inclusions. Although two or …

Sertoli cell ultrastructure was compared in men with testicular disorders (
hypospermatogenesis; germ cell aplasia) and men with normal testes to determine if any …

Sertoli cells in testicular biopsies from 7 patients with Sertoli‐cell‐only syndrome, 8 patients
who had been treated with cyclophosphamide for testicular neoplasia, 8 patients with …

The ultrastructure of a perfusion‐fixed gonad in a case of androgen insensitivity was studied
using thin sections and freeze‐fracture replicas. The distribution and arrangement of …

Sertoli cells are present in the seminiferous tubules of the male gonads, the testes. They
were first observed in 1865 by a young Italian physician Enrico Sertoli and named after him …

The ultrastructure of the nucleus of human Sertoli cells has been studied in testicular
samples from normal adults and patients with hypospermatogenesis or absence of the …

The cell-to-cell junctions between Sertoli cells and between Sertoli cells and spermatogenic
cells have been described and illustrated in the rat seminiferous tubule. The most important …

The Sertoli cells of the human testis were studied with the electron microscope. Evidence is
presented that these cells possess a distinct plasma membrane of their own and are thus …

The scanning electron microscope was used to examine the Sertoli cells in normal and germ‐
cell‐depleted testes. The Sertoli cells appear to attain characteristic configurations in the …
