Urogenital Development

Intermediate mesoderm 

• nephrotomes 

 – cervical, regress @ 4 wks 

• mesonephroi - Wolffian ducts - vas deferens

- urogenital sinus - bladder, urethra

 – thoracolumbar, regress @ 10 wks

• metanephroi - ureteric buds & kidney blastema

 – sacral, arise @ 4 wks

Urogenital Development

Metanephros induced by uteric buds

• renal corpuscle induces Bowman’s capsule 

• as uteric bud branches, blastema bifurcates

• reciprocal induction of branching• renal calyces form from 2o bud fusion

• uteric buds form collecting tubules

• blastema forms PCT, LoH, DCT

• DCT fuses with CD @ 10 wks

Kidneys ascend from sacral to lumbar

• differential growth of segments

• new vessel growth from more proximal aorta 

8/2/2019 Congenital Renal Disease

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 6/68

• PAX2 expressed in CNS, optic placode, kidney

• PAX2 prevents apoptosis, supporting proliferation

• PAX2 autophagy dependent on HSP73, LGP96 and

inhibited by EGF receptor signalling• PAX2 phosphorylated by MAPK pathway (JNK)

• PAX2 expressed in nephrogenic rests adjacent toWilms tumors (WT1 inhibits Pax2 expression)

• PAX2 enhances transcription of WT1, E-cadherin,GDFa and several BMP and FGF genes

• PAX2 inhibits transcription of vimentin gene

Molecular Genetics

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 7/68

Molecular Genetics 

• RET and GDFa involved in uteric bud growth andbranching, and thus metanephric induction

• GDFa is absent in PAX2null mice

• BMP4 inhibits GDF

• EYA1 expressed in kidney blastema

• PAX8 expressed in early renal tubular epithelium

called S-shaped body

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 35/68

Development of the reproductive

system• Makes its appearance during 5th & 6th week 

 – Indifferent stage-sex cannot be determined

• Gonads (testes & ovaries) develop from

 – Coelomic epithelium

 – Inner mesenchyme tissue

 – Primordial germ cells

• Thickening of ventromedial surface of urogenital

ridge forming genital ridge

8/2/2019 Congenital Renal Disease

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 36/68

Genital ridge

• Covered by coelomic epithelium

 – Primary sex cords

• Grow into underlying mesenchyme

• Inner mass is composed of mesenchyme

• Outer layer called cortex

• Inner layer called medulla

 – Males- medulla differentiates, cortex regresses

 – Females-cortex develops, medulla regresses

8/2/2019 Congenital Renal Disease

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 37/68

Primordial Germ Cells (PGC)

• Differentiate in the neck of the yolk sac

 – Early in the 4th week 

• Migrate to genital ridge

 – Amoeboid movement

 – By end of 6th week the PGC become

incorporated into the primary sex cords –  migration of primordial germ cells 

8/2/2019 Congenital Renal Disease

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 38/68

Development of testes

• Primary sex cords of testes containing theprimordial germ cells = testes cords

 – Well defined cords within the medulla

 – Contain two types of cells

• Epithelial cells Sertoli cells• Primordial germ cells spermatoblasts

 –  development of testes 

• Testes cords remain solid until puberty

 – Canalize to form seminiferous tubules (ST), tubulirecti, rete testis

• ST seperated from each other by mesenchyme that givesrise to interstitial cells (Cells of Leydig)

8/2/2019 Congenital Renal Disease

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 39/68

Development of the Ovaries

• Primary sex cords are not well defined

 – Extend into the medulla but later dissappear

• PGC migrate near the cortex (surface epithelium

 – Forms cortical cords

 – At about 16th week cortical cords break up into

isolated clusters called primordial follicles

 –  development of ovary 

8/2/2019 Congenital Renal Disease

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 40/68

Primordial Follicles

• Follicle contains

 – Ooblast (oogonium)

• Derived from the primordial germ cell

• Undergoes mitosis during fetal life –  Results in development of primary oocyte

 – A number of follicular cells

• Derived from the cortical cords

 – Each primary oocyte surrounded by follicular cells

= primary follicle

• follicular development 

8/2/2019 Congenital Renal Disease

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 41/68

Development of Genital Ducts• Indifferent stage

 – Both male and female genital ducts present

• Male develop from mesonephric/wolffian ducts

• Female develop from paramesonephric/mullerian duct

 –  Undifferentiated gonad 

• Males:Mesonephric ducts form epididymis,

ductus deferens, ejaculatory duct

 – Cranial mesonephric tubules efferent ducts• Open into epididymis

 –  Process begins about the 3rd month

8/2/2019 Congenital Renal Disease

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 42/68

Development of Genital Ducts

• Females: Paramesonephric duct/Mullerian duct

develops on each side of the body

 – Longitudinal invagination of coelomic epithelium

on the lateral surface of mesonephros

 – Ducts open into coelom

 – Runs along side of mesonephric duct

 – Fuse at caudal end• Y shaped uterovaginal complex uterus & vagina

 –  uterovaginal complex 

8/2/2019 Congenital Renal Disease

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 43/68

Fetal testes

• Produce androgens

 – Stimulate development of mesonephric ducts

 – Suppress formation of paramesonephric ducts

• If testes fail to develop or removed

 – Paramesonephric ducts will develop

• Removal of fetal ovaries

 – Has no effect on fetal sexual development

8/2/2019 Congenital Renal Disease

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 44/68

Development of external genitalia

• Indifferent stage – Genital tubercle

• Develops at upper end of cloacal membrane

• Elongates to form the Phallus

 – Labioscrotal swellings appear – Urogenital folds appear

 – Cloacal membrane divided into two

• Development of urorectal septum

 –  Upper urogenital membrane

 –  Lower anal membrane

» These membranes rupture around week 7 formingurogenital and anal openings

8/2/2019 Congenital Renal Disease

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 45/68

Development of external genitalia

• Male genitalia

 – Phallus elongates to form the penis

• Enlongation pulls the urogenital folds together

• When folds start to fuse they enclose the urethra –  Urethral opening moves progressively towards end of penis

 – Labioscrotal swellings fuse forming scrotum

• Female genitalia – Phallus becomes clitoris (relatively small)

 – Urogenital folds do not fuse labia minora

 – Labioscrotal fuse only at ends

labia majora

8/2/2019 Congenital Renal Disease

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/congenital-renal-disease 46/68

Accessory sex glands

• Male

 – Highly developed

• Seminal vesicles• Prostate

• Bulbourethral glands

• Female – Minimal
