Chemotactic Role of Neurotropin 3 in the Embryonic Testis That Facilitates Male Sex Determination1

1 Jun 2003

Abstract excerpt

The first morphological event after initiation of male sex determination is seminiferous cord formation in the embryonic testis. Cord formation requires migration of pre-peritubular myoid cells from the adjacent mesonephros. The embryonic Sertoli cells are the first testicular cells to differentiate and have been shown to express neurotropin-3 (NT3), which can act on high-affinity trkC receptors expressed on...
