Male Reproductive System Sexual Reproduction Requires Two Types Of
Male Reproductive system Sexual reproduction requires two types of gametes or sex cells. In the male these cells are the spermatozoa and in the female they are the ova. The reproductive systems are unique in three respects 1. They are specialized in perpetuating the species and passing genetic information. 2. The anatomy and physiology between the male and female reproductive systems are different. 3. They exhibit latent development under hormonal control. The structures of the male reproductive system can be divided into three categories. 1. Primary sex organs - the gonads (testes). These produce sperm and sex hormones. 2. Secondary sex organs - the structures necessary for caring for and transportation of the sperm. A. Sperm transporting ducts 1. epididymus 2. ductus deferens 3. ejaculatory ducts 4. urethra B. Accessory glands 1. seminal vesicle 2. prostate gland 3. bulbourethral (Cowper's) glands C. Copulatory organ - penis. Also includes the scrotum (the skin enclosing the testes) 3. Secondary sex characteristics - These are not reproductively necessary, but are considered sexual attractants. They include things such as body hair, body physique, and voice pitch. Sexual determination - Sex is determined at the time of conception. As we will see, all ova have an x chromosome and sperm are 50:50 X and Y. If an ova is fertilized by an x sperm then we have a female. If an ova is fertilized by a Y sperm then we have a male. Sometimes we see more than one X in an ovum. As long as there is a Y chromosome we will have a male. ie. XXXY = male. -
Mechanisms of Gonadal Morphogenesis Are Not Conserved Between Chick and Mouse ⁎ Ryohei Sekido , Robin Lovell-Badge
Developmental Biology 302 (2007) 132–142 www.elsevier.com/locate/ydbio Mechanisms of gonadal morphogenesis are not conserved between chick and mouse ⁎ Ryohei Sekido , Robin Lovell-Badge Division of Developmental Genetics, MRC National Institute for Medical Research, The Ridgeway, Mill Hill, London NW7 1AA, UK Received for publication 3 June 2006; revised 16 August 2006; accepted 5 September 2006 Available online 9 September 2006 Abstract To understand mechanisms of sex determination, it is important to know the lineage relationships of cells comprising the gonads. For example, in mice, the Y-linked gene Sry triggers differentiation of Sertoli cells from a cell population originating in the coelomic epithelium overlying the nascent gonad that also gives rise to uncharacterised interstitial cells. In contrast, little is known about origins of somatic cell types in the chick testis, where there is no Sry gene and sex determination depends on a ZZ male/ZW female mechanism. To investigate this, we performed fate mapping experiments in ovo, labelling at indifferent stages the coelomic epithelium by electroporation with a lacZ reporter gene and the underlying nephrogenous (or mesonephric) mesenchyme with chemical dyes. After sex differentiation, LacZ-positive cells were exclusively outside testis cords and were 3βHSD-negative, indicating that the coelomic epithelium contributes only to non-steroidogenic interstitial cells. However, we detected dye-labelled cells both inside and outside the cords. The former were AMH-positive while some of the latter were 3βHSD- positive, showing that nephrogenous mesenchyme contributes to both Sertoli cells and steroidogenic cells. This is the first demonstration via lineage analysis that steroidogenic cells originate from nephrogenous mesenchyme, but the revelation that Sertoli cells have different origins between chick and mouse suggests that, during evolution, mechanisms of gonad morphogenesis may diverge alongside those of sex determination. -

Embryology Endo, Energy, and Repro 2017-2018 EMBRYOLOGY OF THE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM Janine Prange-Kiel, Ph.D. Office: L1.106, Phone: 83117 Email: [email protected] LEARNING OBJECTIVES: • Name the structures in kidney development that contribute to the development of the reproductive organs. • Predict how the presence or absence of the Y chromosome and the expression of the SRY gene would influence the development of the gonads. • Predict how the presence or absence of testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, and anit- Mullerian hormone would influence the development of the genital ducts and indifferent primordia of the external genitalia. I. Introduction In general, the function of the genital (reproductive) system in males and females is the formation, nurture, and transport of germ cells. In females, an additional function is to provide the proper milieu for the fetal development after conception. Like the urinary system, the genital system derives from intermediate mesoderm. The development of these two systems is tightly interwoven as structures that develop as parts of the urinary system gain function in the genital system. In the adult, the sexual organs differ between males and females. The early genital system, however, is similar in both sexes, and the sexual differentiation of this initially indifferent, bipotential system starts only in the seventh week of embryonic development. The details on how sexual differentiation is determined will be discussed below, but it is worth mentioning here that irregularities in this process result in disorders of sexual differentiation (DSDs). DSDs occur in approximately 1 in 4,500 live births and will be discussed in a separate lecture. -

Genital System
Development of Urogenital System Dr. Ammar Alhaaik Development of Urinary System Diagrams of transverse sections of the embryo - 20 days Intermediate mesoderm Intermediate mesoderm (including adjacent coelom mesothelium) forms a urogenital ridge, consisting of a laterally-positioned nephrogenic cord (that becomes kidneys & ureter) and a medially positioned gonadal ridge (for ovary/testis & female/male genital tract formation). Urinary & genital systems have a common embryonic origin; also, they share common ducts. Nephrogenic cord: develops into three sets of tubular nephric structures (from head to tail :)pronephros mesonephros metanephros) Pronephros— develops during the 4th weekin the cervical region of the intermediate mesoderm . It consists of (7-8) primitive tubules and a pronephric duct that grows caudally and terminates in the cloaca. The tubules soon degenerate, but the pronephric duct persists as the mesonephric duct. Mesonephros: — consists of (70-80) tubules induced to form by the mesonephric duct (former pronephric duct) — one end of each tubule surrounds a glomerulus (vascular proliferation produced by a branch of the dorsal aorta) — the other end of the tubule communicates with the mesonephric duct — eventually, the mesonephros degenerates, but the mesonephric duct becomes epididymis & ductus deferens and some tubules that become incorporated within the testis Metanephros: *becomes adult kidney & ureter of mammals, birds, and reptiles • originates in the pelvic region and moves cranially into the abdomen during embryonic differential growth * lobulated initially but becomes smooth in most species The metanephros originates from two sources: 1- a ureteric bud, which grows out of the mesonephric duct near the cloaca; the bud develops into the ureter, renal pelvis, and numerous collecting ducts; 2- metanephrogenic blastema, which is the caudal region of the nephrogenic cord; the mass forms nephrons NOTE • The pronephros is not functional. -

However, embryologically and anatomically, the two KEYWORDS are closely related. Both originate from a single mesodermal urogenital ridge (intermediate mesoderm) along the posterior wall of the abdominal cavity, and initially, the excretory ducts of both CORRESPONDENCE systems enter the same cavity, the cloaca. The urogenital Phone: 0811668272 system is a system consisting of the urinary system which is E-mail: [email protected] divided into the urinary tract and the genital system. Where the urinary system is divided into the upper and lower urinary tracts. The upper urinary tract consists of the kidneys, renal pelvis and ureters, while the lower urinary tract consists of the urinary bladder and urethra. The external genital system in men and women is different, in men it consists of the penis, testes and scrotum, while in women it consists of the vagina, uterus and ovaries. The following will describe the urogenital system in women. Kidney System During intrauterine life, in humans three renal systems are formed which slightly overlap in cranial-to-caudal order: pronephros, mesonephros and metanephros. Pronephros is rudimentary and non-functional; the mesonephros may function in the short term during early fetal life; metanephros forms the permanent kidney.
