1 Development of the urogenital system Location of the pronephros, mesonephros and metanephros Differentiation of the intermedierm mesoderm into nephrotome and mesonephric tubules Connection between aorta and mesonephric tubules, and between intraembryonic coelom and tubules established External and internal glomeruli are formed Laterally a longitudinal duct collects the urine from the tubules: this is the Wolffian-duct (or mesonephric duct) An outgrowth from the mesonephric duct, the ureteric bud growing towards metanephros. With time their distal end will be incorporated into the dorsal wall of the urogenital sinus. 1

2 Development of kidney ca su Ureteric bud reaches the metanephrogenic tissue bo eq Ureteric bud dilates, forms renal pelvis, major and minor calyces, collecting tubules Wolffian-duct (blue) and ureteric bud (yelow) will be partly incorporated into urogenital sinus, thus this site is mesodermal derived trigonum vesicae 2

3 Formation of tubular and collecting system Ureteric bud dilates, forms renal pelvis, major and minor calyces, collecting tubules Crossing movement: ascent of metanephros, descent of the gonad /blue: mesonephros and mesonephric duct, red: gonad, black: metanephros/ Parts of the urogenital sinus: urachus, urinary bladder, urethra Metanephrogenic tissue around ureteric bud Connection between the excretory units (blue) of the metanephrogenic tissue with collecting tubular system (yellow) which arrived from ureteric bud Urogenital ridge: - laterally is the mesonephros (with the glomerulus, excretory tubule, mesonephric duct, paramesonephric duct) - medially is the gonad Renal corpuscle, glomerulus, Bowman s capsule, proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule (from the excretory tubules), and the collecting tubule (from the ureteric bud) 3

4 Gonadal development A genital ridge appears medially on the urogenital ridge Next to the Wolffian (or mesonephric) duct is the Müllerian (or paramesonephric) duct Primordial germ cells (originated from the epiblast) migrate through primitive streak, then in the wall of the yolk sac and primitive gut, finally through the dorsal mesentery they reach the primitive gonads Primitive sex cords develop due to the penetration of epithelial cells into the underlying mesenchyme, the primordial germ cells move between them indifferent gonad has been established 4

5 Differentiation of the testis, ovaries and their ducts XY XX spermatozoa tubuli semineferi, Sertoli cells primordial germ cells sex cords SRY gene indifferent gonad primordial germ cells sex cords ova follicular cells paramesonephric duct suppressed Müllerian inhibiting substance (Sertoli cells) paramesonephric ducts stimulated mesonephric ducts stimulated external genitalia stimulated testosterone (Leydig cells) testis ovary estrogens (maternal and placental sources) external genitalia stimulated develop medullary cords degenerate Ø cortical cords develop thick tunica albuginea Ø efferent ductules, paradidymis epididymis, deferent duct appendix appendix testis, testis uterus masculinus mesonephric tubules Wolffian-duct Müllerian-duct epoophoron, paroophoron Gartner s duct uterine tube, uterus, part of vagina 5

6 Uterus types and descent of the testis bo su eq ca ho or Descent of the testis through inguinal channel into scrotum, directed by the gubernaculum testis 6

7 External genital organs In females uterine tube, uterus and cranial portion of vagina have been formed from Müllerian-duct, whilst caudal part and vestibule of the vagina develops from the urogenital sinus s vaginal plate In males mesonephric duct gives rise the seminal vesicles and ampulla ductus deferentis, and caudal part of the urogenital sinus transforms into pelvic and penile urethra, prostate and bulbourethral gland genital tubercle and cloacal folds genital tubercle, urogenital and anal folds - next to urogenital fold genital (labioscrotal) swelling appears genital tubercle phallus, glans of the penis urogenital fold fuse urethral groove penile urethra genital swellings fuse above the urethral groove scrotum genital tubercle clitoris, urogenital folds labia (minora) of the vulva genital swellings Ø no labia majora 7

8 Developmental anomalies complete double ureter partial double ureter possible sites for an ectopic ureter pelvic kidney urachal fistula urachal cyst urachal sinus horseshoe kidney Genotype problems: - X0 (Turner s syndrome): mostly in horse. Infertile, anoestrus female, hypoplastic inner and outer genitals - XXY (Klinefelter s syndrome): infertile males with hypoplastic testes. Eg.: tortoiseshell and tricolor cats Phenotype problems: - pseudohermaphroditism: internal and external genitalia are ambiguous. Eg.: androgen effect during gestation - true hermaphroditism: both ovarian and testicular tissues are present - freemartinism: genotypic female (XX) animal which born with a co-twin male (XY) and his androgens affect her. Cattle. - testicular feminization syndrome: genetic males with internal testes and external female genitalia. Prevalent in pigs - mesonephric ducts abnormalities: - stenosis or aplasia of the epididymidis or ductus deferens - paradidymidis: persistent mesonephric tubules caudal to the efferent ductules - epoophoron, paroophoron: remnants of the cranial parts of the mesonephric tubules - Gartner s duct: remnant of the caudal parts of the mesonephric duct. Common in cow, sow and cat - paramesonephric ducts abnormalities: - appendix testis, uterus masculinus (utriculus prostaticus): remnant of the paramesonephric duct - persistent Müllerian duct syndrome: uterus and uterine tubes in males. Eg.: Basset hound, Miniature Schnauzer - uterus duplex (uterus didelphys): each duct enters the vagina separately - cryptorchidism: failure of one or both testicles to descend into the scrotum. One of the most common disorder - congenital preputial stenosis (phimosis): narrowing of the preputial orifice - hypospadia: urethra opens onto the ventral surface of the penis 8
