title: Ultrastructural identification of the Sertoli cell in the testis of the northern pike, Esox lucius.
abstract: Identification of the intralobular Sertoli cell in the testis of Esox lucius is based upon residual body phagocytosis. Formerly, this lipid-containing cell type was refereed to as the "lobule boundary cell" and erroneously believed to be homologous to the interstitial Leydig cell.
