Results
Specimen 6A: 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: epithelium of pelvic urethra of female Present 6A

Specimen 6B: 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: basal cell layer of pelvic urethra of male Present 6B
TS25: prostate epithelium Present 6B
TS25: epithelium of seminal vesicle Present Ubiquitous 6B
TS25: superficial cell layer of pelvic urethra of male Present Regionally restricted 6B Expression is seen in the caudal aspect of the pelvic urethra.

Specimen 6C: 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: basal cell layer of pelvic urethra of male Present 6C
TS28: prostate epithelium Present Regionally restricted 6C Expression is seen in the proximal portion of prostatic ducts.
TS28: epithelium of seminal vesicle Present Spotted 6C
