Wt1 Is Required for the Regression of Müllerian Ducts in Male Mice by Inducing Wif1 and Osx Expression. [PDF]

Cell Prolif
Wt1 expressed in the MD mesenchyme promotes MD regression by inducing Wif1 and Osx transcription. In male mice, mesenchyme‐specific inactivation of Wt1 results in MD retention. ABSTRACT In mammals, Müllerian ducts (MDs) are the precursors of the female reproductive tract which regress in males during embryonic development.

SMAD2/3 signaling regulates initiation of mouse Wolffian ducts and proximal differentiation in Müllerian ducts [PDF]

FEBS Open Bio
Male and female reproductive tracts develop from anterior intermediate mesoderm with similar differentiation processes. The anterior intermediate mesoderm develops into the mesonephros, and the Wolffian duct initiates by epithelialization in the ...

Gamete-exporting organs of vertebrates: dazed and confused

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Mature gametes are transported externally for fertilization. In vertebrates, the gonads are located within the coelom. Consequently, each species has specific organs for export, which often vary according to sex.

Mechanistic Drivers of Müllerian Duct Development and Differentiation Into the Oviduct

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
The conduits of life; the animal oviducts and human fallopian tubes are of paramount importance for reproduction in amniotes. They connect the ovary with the uterus and are essential for fertility.

Clinical Presentation and Diagnostic Dilemma in Management of Unicornuate Uterus with Canalised Rudimentary HornA Case Series [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2021
