Protein tyrosine kinase 7 regulates extracellular matrix integrity and mesenchymal intracellular RAC1 and myosin II activities during Wolffian duct morphogenesis
(2018-06-01)
Wolffian duct morphogenesis must be highly coordinated with its specialized function of providing an optimal microenvironment for sperm maturation. Without normal Wolffian duct morphogenesis, male infertility will result. ...
Protein tyrosine kinase 7 is essential for tubular morphogenesis of the Wolffian duct
(2016-04-15)
The Wolffian duct, the proximal end of the mesonephric duct, undergoes non-branching morphogenesis to achieve an optimal length and size for sperm maturation. It is important to examine the mechanisms by which the developing ...
We, the developing rete testis, efferent ducts, and Wolffian duct, all hereby agree that we need to connect
(2019-01-01)
Background: The mechanisms by which the rete testis joins the efferent ducts, which joins the Wolffian duct during development, are not known. Mouse and chick models have been helpful in identifying genes that are important ...
Novel androgen-induced activity of an antimicrobial beta-defensin: Regulation of Wolffian duct morphogenesis
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2017)
The Wolffian duct (WD) undergoes morphological changes induced by androgens to form the epididymis, which is an organ essential for sperm maturation. Androgen action in WD epithelium involves paracrine factors of mesenchymal ...
Is the Epididymis a Series of Organs Placed Side By Side?
(Soc Study Reproduction, 2016-07-01)
The mammalian epididymis is more than a highly convoluted tube divided into four regions: initial segment, caput, corpus and cauda. It is a highly segmented structure with each segment expressing its own and overlapping ...
New Morphological Synapomorphies for the New World Direct-Developing Frogs (Amphibia: Anura: Terrarana)
(Lawrence, 2013)
The New World direct-developing frogs (Terrarana) comprise more than 970 species distributed from the southern United States to northern Argentina. Although the composition of this clade has been remarkably stable for many ...
New morphological synapomorphies for the new world direct-developing frogs (Amphibia: Anura: Terrarana).
(Herpetologists League, 2013-09)
The New World direct-developing frogs (Terrarana) comprise more than 970 species distributed from the southern United States to northern Argentina. Although the composition of this clade has been remarkably stable for many ...
Diagnosis and treatment of disorders of sexual development
(Elsevier, 2016)
-Wolffian ducts, the urogenital sinus and external genitalia virilize in proportion to androgen activity (androgen levels and androgen receptor expression in target organs) during the first trimester of fetal life. Müllerian ...
beta-defensins and the epididymis: contrasting influences of prenatal, postnatal, and adult scenarios
(Medknow Publications & Media Pvt Ltd, 2016-03-01)
beta-defensins are components of host defense, with antimicrobial and pleiotropic immuno-modulatory properties. Research over the last 15 years has demonstrated abundant expression of a variety of -defensins in the postnatal ...
Intérêt du dosage de l’hormone anti-müllérienne pour le diagnostic et la définition des anomalies de la différenciation sexuelleUsefulness of anti-mullerian determination in the diagnosis and definition of disorders of sex development
(John Libbey, 2014-03)
Le testicule fœtal sécrète deux hormones distinctes : la testostérone qui provoque la différenciation des canaux de Wolff et la masculinisation du sinus urogénital et des organes génitaux externes, et l’hormone anti-Müllérienne ...
