Results
Specimen 4D: embryonic day 17.5 (more )
Note: Labeling was visualized using BM purple. The specimen was also stained for Cdh1 (red) to visualize the urothelium and Acta2 (green) to visualize the muscularis mucosa and muscularis propria.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS25: lamina propria of dorsal pelvic urethra of female Present 4D Expression is more prominent in the dorsal versus ventral aspect.
Specimen 4E: embryonic day 17.5 (more )
Note: Labeling was visualized using BM purple. The specimen was also stained for Cdh1 (red) to visualize the urothelium and Acta2 (green) to visualize the muscularis mucosa and muscularis propria.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS25: lamina propria of dorsal pelvic urethra of male Present 4E
TS25: peri-prostatic mesenchyme Present 4E Expression is seen in the mesenchyme surrounding the prostatic buds.
TS25: lamina propria of seminal vesicle Present 4E Expression is seen in the mesenchyme surrounding the seminal vesicle.
Specimen 4F: postnatal day 5 (more )
Note: Labeling was visualized using BM purple. The specimen was also stained for Cdh1 (red) to visualize the urothelium and Acta2 (green) to visualize the muscularis mucosa and muscularis propria.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: lamina propria of dorsal pelvic urethra of male Present 4F Expression is more prominent in the dorsal versus ventral aspect.
TS28: epithelium of pelvic urethra of male Present Regionally restricted 4F Expression is seen in the caudal aspect of the pelvic urethra urothelium.
TS28: epithelium of seminal vesicle Present 4F
