V. Toxicants and Blood-Testis Barrier Function. Environmental toxicants, such as heavy metals (e.g., cadmium), that caused testicular injury (Parizek and Zahor, 1956; Parizek, 1960; Chiquoine, 1964) and BTB disruption (Setchell and Waites, 1970) were first reported more than 5 decades ago.RP1 was found to be expressed at relatively high levels in the mouse testis versus other organs. It is detected in Sertoli cells, spermatogonia, round and elongating/elongated spermatids, and even spermatozoa (Stride et al., 1996), but mostly in Sertoli cells and Leydig cells of humans and mice (Flens et al., 1996).
