Summary In the testis of Esox lucius at the time of spermiation, activity of cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cAMP) was immunocytochemically localized at the level of the Sertoli cells. In these cells adenylate cyclase activity was also ultracytochemically demonstrated by using adenylyl imidodiphosphate as a substrate. Reaction products of adenylate cyclase were primarily detectable on the basal and adluminal plasma membranes and on the surface of protrusions of the cell body into the lumen.
