Results
Specimen 5A: 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: lower urogenital tract of female Present Widespread 5A Expression is nearly ubiquitous.
TS25: pelvic urethra of female Present Widespread 5A Expression is nearly ubiquitous.
Specimen 5B: 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: lower urogenital tract of male Present Widespread 5B Expression is nearly ubiquitous.
TS25: pelvic urethra of male Present Widespread 5B Expression is nearly ubiquitous.
Specimen 5C: 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: prostate epithelium Present Non-Uniform 5C Expression is abundant in the distal tips of elongating prostatic buds compared to elsewhere.
