Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: testis Present Regionally restricted 5B 14.5 dpc
TS22: germ cell of testis Present Regionally restricted 5B 14.5 dpc Authors state that 20-30 positive germ cells were found in the anterior junction between the gonad and mesonephros. Positive cells were located both inside and outside testis cord structures and in the mesonephros.
