متن کاملExpression of androgen receptors in upper human fetal reproductive tract.
BACKGROUND Androgens play a key role in human fetal development. All androgens act through a single intracellular androgen receptor (AR), which is encoded by a single copy gene on the X chromosome. ARs are expressed as early as 9 weeks in the epithelium and mesenchyme of the urogenital sinus, paramesonephric (Müllerian) and mesonephric (Wolffian) ducts. METHODS Using immunohistochemistry, we ...
متن کاملGene Expression Profiling Reveals New Potential Players of Gonad Differentiation in the Chicken Embryo
BACKGROUND In birds as in mammals, a genetic switch determines whether the undifferentiated gonad develops into an ovary or a testis. However, understanding of the molecular pathway(s) involved in gonad differentiation is still incomplete. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS With the aim of improving characterization of the molecular pathway(s) involved in gonad differentiation in the chicken embr...
متن کاملSyntaxin 1A is transiently expressed in fetal lung mesenchymal cells: potential developmental roles.
Lung development is a complex process in which epithelial-mesenchymal interactions play a key role. A conserved secretory apparatus, the soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex, is essential for exocytosis in many cell types. Syntaxins, located on the terminal plasma membrane (T-SNAREs), are a critical component of the secretosomal complex involved ...
متن کاملBone morphogenetic protein 4 modulates c-Kit expression and differentiation potential in murine embryonic aorta-gonad-mesonephros haematopoiesis in vitro
The transforming growth factor-beta-related factor bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) is expressed in the human embryonic aorta-gonad-mesonephros (AGM) coincident with the emergence of haematopoietic cells and influences postnatal mammalian haematopoietic stem cells in vitro. To investigate the role of BMP4 in mammalian embryonic haematopoiesis, cells were isolated from murine AGM and two popu...
