Sexually dimorphic expression of Gata-2 during mouse gonad development
We report that Gata-2 is expressed in a sexually dimorphic fashion during mouse gonadogenesis. Gata-2 transcripts accumulate rapidly in the fetal ovary from 11.5 days post coitum (dpc) onwards, but are not detected in the fetal testis throughout the period studied (10.5-15.5 dpc). Ovarian expression of Gata-2 ceases by 15.5 dpc. Examination of ovaries from embryos homozygous for the extreme all...
متن کاملSexually dimorphic gene expression in the developing mouse gonad.
Over the course of a few days, the bipotential embryonic mouse gonad differentiates into either a testis or an ovary. Though a few gene expression differences that underlie gonadal sex differentiation have been identified, additional components of the testicular and ovarian developmental pathways must be identified to understand this process. Here we report the use of a PCR-based cDNA subtracti...
متن کاملTranscriptomic Analyses Reveal Novel Genes with Sexually Dimorphic Expression in the Zebrafish Gonad and Brain
BACKGROUND Our knowledge on zebrafish reproduction is very limited. We generated a gonad-derived cDNA microarray from zebrafish and used it to analyze large-scale gene expression profiles in adult gonads and other organs. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We have identified 116638 gonad-derived zebrafish expressed sequence tags (ESTs), 21% of which were isolated in our lab. Following in silico n...
متن کاملSexually dimorphic development of mouse primordial germ cells: switching from oogenesis to spermatogenesis.
During embryogenesis, primordial germ cells (PGCs) have the potential to enter either spermatogenesis or oogenesis. In a female genital ridge, or in a non-gonadal environment, PGCs develop as meiotic oocytes. However, male gonadal somatic cells inhibit PGCs from entering meiosis and direct them to a spermatogenic fate. We have examined the ability of PGCs from male and female embryos to respond...
متن کاملNonautonomous sex determination controls sexually dimorphic development of the Drosophila gonad.
Sex determination in Drosophila is commonly thought to be a cell-autonomous process, where each cell decides its own sexual fate based on its sex chromosome constitution (XX versus XY). This is in contrast to sex determination in mammals, which largely acts nonautonomously through cell-cell signaling. Here we examine how sexual dimorphism is created in the Drosophila gonad by investigating the ...
