Androgen action during male sex differentiation includes suppression of cranial suspensory ligament development.
The cranial suspensory ligament is located on the border of the cranial (mesonephric) mesentery in adult female mammals, which runs between the cranial pole of the internal genitalia and the dorsal abdominal wall. Absence of the cranial suspensory ligament in male mammals depends upon exposure of its primordium to fetal testicular androgens and is a prerequisite for testis descent. Female rats ...
متن کاملTreatment of Suspensory Ligament Desmopathy
Suspensory ligament desmopathy is a significant cause of lameness in performance and racehorses. Although injuries to the branches and body can normally be treated successfully with supportive care and rest, injuries at the origin and insertion can become chronic non-healing injuries, which require stimulation of healing to resolve the lameness. Authors’ addresses: Marion duPont Scott Equine Me...
متن کاملAndrogen-induced prevention of the outgrowth of cranial gonadal suspensory ligaments in fetal rats.
Normal and disturbed testicular descent is frequently approached exclusively through a consideration of the caudal testicular suspensory apparatus. This is surprising, because embryonal gonads develop with both cranial and caudal suspensory ligaments, and the sexes differ with respect to the persistence and development of both the cranial and the caudal ligaments. The current study examined the...
متن کاملSuspensory ligament rupture technique during ovariohysterectomy in small animals.
During ovariohysterectomy, suspensory ligament (SL) rupture permits retraction of the ovary and distal ovarian pedicle through a limited ventral midline incision. This allows the surgeon to confirm that the pedicle is securely double ligated and includes no ovarian remnant. For less experienced surgeons, SL rupture is often difficult and daunting because the ligament is buried within the abdomi...
متن کامل06-P031 Development of the male reproductive system: Potential mediators of androgen action during the male programming window
By E16.5, the secondary lens fibre cells were abnormally arranged with poor lens suture formation. Apoptotic cells were found in the centre of the lens as shown by TUNEL assay, the cytoskeleton and cell adhesion in the lens centre were disturbed as shown in immunohistochemistry analysis. By western blotting we found that mutant c-crystallins were reduced in amount and enriched in the insoluble ...
