Claudin-11 is over-expressed and dislocated from the blood-testis barrier in Sertoli cells associated with testicular intraepithelial neoplasia in menCornelia Fink
Institute of Veterinary Anatomy, Histology and Embryology, University of Giessen, Frankfurter Str 98, 35392 Giessen, Germany
Histochem Cell Biol 131:755-64. 2009..In TIN tubules, claudin-11 is up-regulated and dislocated from the BTB. Therefore, the disruption of the BTB is related to a dysfunction of claudin-11 and not to a failure of its expression...
Specific localisation of gap junction protein connexin 32 in the gastric mucosa of horsesCornelia Fink
Department of Veterinary Anatomy, Histology and Embryology, Justus Liebig University Giessen, Frankfurter Strasse 98, Giessen, Germany
Histochem Cell Biol 125:307-13. 2006..These results suggest that gap junctions develop during the maturation of surface cells. Whether the lack of Cx32 at pars nonglandularis contributes to its susceptibility for developing ulcers, has to be further elucidated...
Connexin 33: a rodent-specific member of the gap junction protein family?Petra Fischer
Department of Veterinary Anatomy, Histology, and Embryology, University of Giessen, Germany
J Androl 26:75-84. 2005..These data indicate that cx33 seems to be the first rodent-specific testicular cx...
Cellular localization of estrogen receptor-alpha (ERalpha) and -beta (ERbeta) mRNA in the boar testisO Lekhkota
Institute of Veterinary Anatomy, Histology, and Embryology, Justus Liebig University Giessen, Frankfurterstrasse 98, 35392 Giessen, Germany
Histochem Cell Biol 125:259-64. 2006..Interstitial Leydig cells revealed neither ERalpha nor ERbeta mRNA. The data suggest a direct impact of estrogen in the boar on Sertoli cell function via ERbeta and germ cell formation via ERalpha...

Department of Urology and Pediatric Urology, Giessen, Germany
Histochem Cell Biol 127:175-81. 2007..This holds true also in testicular tumors, where HDAC1 has been demonstrated in embryonal carcinoma, seminoma and teratoma. Interestingly, DNMT1 was not expressed in seminoma, but upregulated in embryonal carcinoma...

Institute of Veterinary Anatomy, University of Giessen, Germany
APMIS 112:79-88. 2004..e. that the switch from pre-invasive CIS to invasive tumour takes place in situ by tubular enlargement due to tumour cell proliferation followed by Sertoli cell degeneration and conversion of the tubular wall into connective tissue...
