Gadd45g and Sex Determination Model
Main components of the transcriptional network around the time of primary sex determination and suggested mechanism of Gadd45g action. In the absence of SRY (XX gonads), female-specific genetic programs (such as the WNT4/beta-catenin pathway) direct differentiation of the somatic support lineage into granulosa cells and ovary development. In XY gonads, SRY expression at 11.5 dpc induces SOX9 expression, Sertoli cell differentiation and testis cord formation. In males, Sertoli cell-derived anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) induces Müllerian duct regression, and testosterone induces differentiation of the Wolffian duct into vas deferens, seminal vesicles and epididymis.
