In vitro germ cell differentiation during sex differentiation in a teleost fish.
To clarify the sexually dimorphic mechanisms of gonadal sex differentiation, we established an in vitro culture system for gonadal sex differentiation using the teleost fish Oreochromis niloticus. In vivo, the entry of germ cells into meiosis occurs around 35 days after hatching (dah) in XX gonads, whereas in XY gonads, meiotic cells became differentiated around 85 dah. In our in vitro culture ...
متن کاملTwo isoforms of vasa homologs in a teleost fish: their differential expression during germ cell differentiation
Two isoforms of vasa mRNA and protein are present in a teleost fish, tilapia. One (vas-s) lacks a part of the N-terminal region found in the other isoform (vas). Both isoforms are expressed in oocytes through the embryonic stage when primordial germ cells (PGCs) localize in the lateral plate mesoderm. After PGC localization in the gonadal anlagen, vas-s expression increased and vas expression b...
متن کاملI-18: The Role of Sex Chromosomes in Female Germ Cell Differentiation
Background When gonadal sex reversal occurs in mammalian species, the resultant XX males and XY females become infertile or subfertile, suggesting critical roles of sex chromosomes in germ cell differentiation. The objective of our study is to clarify the mechanism of infertility in the B6.YTIR (XY) sex-reversed female mouse, which can be attributed to a failure in the second meiotic division i...
متن کاملSex differentiation of germ cells in the teleost, Oryzias latipes, during noraml embryonic development.
Mitotic and meiotic activities of germ cells during early development in the medaka, Oryzias latipes, are dealt with in this report. Primordial germ cells were obviously distinguishable from somatic cells 3 days after fertilization and began to proliferate about 7 days after fertilization. The mean number of primordial germ cells increased during a period of 7-10 days after fertilization, reach...
متن کاملSex differentiation in goat fetus
Reproduction in domestic animals, as a major source of food and other products for human, has greatimportance and study of related subjects including sex differentiation and gonadogenesis during fetal life can solve many questions on normal development and various disorders of urogenital system. Since studies on sex differentiation in goat fetus are scarce, this study was performed. Twenty-five...
