Genetics of sex determination: exceptions that prove the rule.

The dogma that male and female embryos develop in identical fashion until SRY initiates Sertoli cell differentiation in the hitherto bipotential gonad is in need of reevaluation in the light of data that do not fit into this scheme. One of the exceptions that proves the rule of sex determination is true hermaphroditism, the existence of individuals with both testicular and ovarian tissue. Furth...

Apoptosis, Autophagy, and Necrosis in Murine Embryonic Gonadal Ridges and Neonatal Ovaries: An Animal Model

Background: In mammalian ovaries, loss of over two-thirds of germ cells happens due to cell death. Nonetheless, the exact mechanism of cell death has yet to be determined. The present basic practical study was designed to detect 3 types of programmed cell death, namely apoptosis, autophagy, and necrosis, in murine embryonic gonadal ridges and neonatal ovaries.Methods: Twenty gonadal ridges and ...

Prenatal endocrine influences on sexual orientation and on sexually differentiated childhood behavior.

Both sexual orientation and sex-typical childhood behaviors, such as toy, playmate and activity preferences, show substantial sex differences, as well as substantial variability within each sex. In other species, behaviors that show sex differences are typically influenced by exposure to gonadal steroids, particularly testosterone and its metabolites, during early development (prenatally or neo...

Accelerated germ cell apoptosis in sex chromosome aneuploid fetal human gonads.

The purpose of the study was to examine the occurrence of programmed cell death (apoptosis) in normal and chromosomally aneuploid testis and ovaries during the second trimester of human development. Such information may be useful in understanding normal and abnormal germ cell development and disorders associated with infertility in adult life. Apoptosis was studied by terminal deoxynucleotidyl ...

The First Record of Female Maturation of the Short-finned Eel, Anguilla bicolor bicolor, in the Coastal Waters of Thailand.

The objective of the present study was to provide reproductive biological information on the gonadal development of the short-finned eel, Anguilla bicolor bicolor, which inhabits the coastal waters of Thailand. Short-finned eels were collected from three coastal areas of Trang Province, southern Thailand, from September 2011 to December 2013. The gonads of 151 specimens were subjected to a hist...
