Urogenital Development
This practical will introduce the topic of urogenital differentiation during development through a series of online resource pages.
Aim: This practical is an introduction to the earliest events in Sexual Differentiation.
Key Concepts: Intermediate mesoderm, primordial germ cells, renal development, bladder development, gonad, internal genitalia, external genitalia, ovary, testes, puberty, hormonal changes, gametogenesis, abnormalities.
Background
Genital Timeline
These are approximate timings and stages only.
- 24 days - intermediate mesoderm, pronephros primordium
- 28 days - mesonephros and mesonephric duct
- 35 days - uteric bud, metanephros, urogenital ridge
- 42 days - cloacal divison, gonadal primordium (indifferent)
- 49 days - paramesonephric duct, gonadal differentiation
- 56 days - paramesonephric duct fusion (female)
- 100 days - primary follicles (ovary)
