Results
Specimen E15.5: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Note: This is a mid-sagittal section.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: mesenchyme of urogenital sinus Present Diffuse 1_E15.5 Expression is present in a diffuse band circumscribing each of the urogenital sinus epithelial zones from which prostatic buds emerge.
Specimen E16.5: embryonic day 16.5 (more )
Note: This is a mid-sagittal section.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS24: mesenchyme of urogenital sinus Present Non-Uniform 1_E16.5 Expression is most abundant in the anterior budding zone immediately after prostatic bud formation, moderately expressed in the dorsolateral prostatic budding zone, and is weakly expressed where buds have not yet emerged in the ventral budding zone.
Specimen E17.5: embryonic day 17.5 (more )
Note: This is a mid-sagittal section.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS25: prostate bud Present 1_E17.5 Expression is observed in the mesenchyme juxtaposed to elongating anterior and dorsal prostatic buds; expression is most robust at the base of the buds and dissipated towards the bud tips.
