Connexin 43 a potential regulator of cell proliferation and apoptosis within the seminiferous epithelium

The gap junction proteins, connexins (Cx), are present in the testis and among them Cx43 play an essential role in spermatogenesis. By using an in vitro proliferation model of germ cells and Sertoli cells, we tempted here to clarify the role of Cx43 in the control of Sertoli and germ cell proliferat...
