Anchoring or adhering junctions are points at which cells attach to neighboring cells. They play an important role in determining and maintaining tissue organization (for reviews, see Yap et al, 1997; Tsukita et al, 2001; Cheng and Mruk, 2002). In the testis, unique cell-cell actin-based adherens junctions (AJs) between Sertoli cells, as well as between Sertoli and germ cells, and cell-cell int...

Therefore, the undesirable outputs should be ...
