Results
Specimen 6J: 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 Absent 6J
TS25: pelvic urethra of female Absent 6J

Specimen 6K: 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 Absent 6K
TS25: pelvic urethra of male Absent 6K

Specimen 6L: 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 Regionally restricted 6L Expression is localized to the proximal portion of prostatic duct epithelium.
