Differences in Formation of Prepuce and Urethral Groove During Penile Devel-Opment Between Guinea Pigs and Mice Are Controlled by Differential Expression of Shh, Fgf10 and Fgfr2
2025-01-03
Abstract excerpt
The penile tubular urethra forms by canalization of the urethral plate without forming an obvious urethral groove in mice, while urethral epithelium forms fully opened urethral groove before urethra closure through dis-tal-opening-proximal-closing process in humans and guinea pigs. Our knowledge about the mechanism of penile development is mainly based on the studies in mice. To reveal how the fully opened urethra...
