Occluding junctions regulate germline differentiation and stem cell niche homeostasis in the Drosophila melanogaster testis
Spermatogenesis is a reiterative process wherein sperm are continually produced from a small group of adult stem cells that are found in a unique niche. In Drosophila melanogaster this stem cell niche is made up of a cluster of cells, called the hub, which maintains both germline stem cells and soma...
