Gap junctions between guinea-pig pinealocytes.
In accordance with previous results in rats, belt-like arrangements of fenestrated gap junctions have been found around the collicular segments of pineal cells in the guinea pig. In addition, macular interpinealocyte gap junctions have been observed in this species.
