Gonad Differentiation in the Rabbit: Evidence of Species-Specific Features
The rabbit is an attractive species for the study of gonad differentiation because of its 31-day long gestation, the timing of female meiosis around birth and the 15-day delay between gonadal switch and the onset of meiosis in the female. The expression of a series of genes was thus determined by qPCR during foetal life until adulthood, completed by a histological analysis and whenever possible...
متن کاملDifferentiation markers in the Drosophila ovary.
A library of monoclonal antibodies, raised against imaginal discs of Drosophila melanogaster, was screened for binding to differentiation antigens in the adult ovary by immunofluorescence. Several lectins were similarly assayed. Two antibodies, DOV 1 and DOV 2, and wheat germ agglutinin exhibited binding which was restricted to particular stages of ovarian cell differentiation. DOV 2 also showe...
متن کاملGene Expression Profiling Reveals New Potential Players of Gonad Differentiation in the Chicken Embryo
BACKGROUND In birds as in mammals, a genetic switch determines whether the undifferentiated gonad develops into an ovary or a testis. However, understanding of the molecular pathway(s) involved in gonad differentiation is still incomplete. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS With the aim of improving characterization of the molecular pathway(s) involved in gonad differentiation in the chicken embr...
متن کاملFoxl2 is required for commitment to ovary differentiation.
Genetic control of female sex differentiation from a bipotential gonad in mammals is poorly understood. We find that mouse XX gonads lacking the forkhead transcription factor Foxl2 form meiotic prophase oocytes, but then activate the genetic program for somatic testis determination. Pivotal Foxl2 action thus represses the male gene pathway at several stages of female gonadal differentiation. Th...
