Summary
[edit]DescriptionSexual differentiation of bipotential gonads and the histological variations of ovaries in the indicated species.png | Figure 3. Sexual differentiation of bipotential gonads and the histological variations of ovaries in the indicated species. (A) Bipotential gonads differentiate into testes or ovaries. In mammalian testes, primary sex cords form tubular structures (seminiferous tubules (deep blue) with germ cells (yellow dots)) and the rete testis (cyan), which provide a route for continuous sperm transportation from the seminiferous tubules to the efferent ducts. Interstitial components are shown in gray. Mammalian ovaries commonly develop secondary sex cords with germ cells in the cortical region as a site of future folliculogenesis (orange; yellow dots, germ cells). However, the morphological characteristics of primary sex cords in the medullary region of the ovary show considerable diversity among mammals. (B) In the ovaries of goats and cows, secondary sex cords in the cortical region form during the fetal period. Germ cells in the medullary region disappear and the primary sex region regresses. In the ovaries of mice, secondary sex cords in the cortical region are not distinct in the fetal period; germ cells in the medullary region are maintained and develop immediately after birth as the first wave of follicles (pale-orange circles with yellow dots). In the ovaries of spotted hyenas and most mole species, the medullary region develops as a male-like tissue with Leydig-cell-like steroidogenic cells (deep blue). In the ovaries of horses, the cortical region (in which folliculogenesis occurs) is surrounded by the well-developed medulla and forms a unique structure known as the ovulation fossa. |
