Germ Cell Migration
Migration from endoderm
through mesoderm.
Migration begins by the 4 week of gestation in cow and human.
Fetal Kidneys
• Pronephros
» regresses
• Mesonephros
» portions
of reproductive tract
• Metenephros
» Adult
kindney and urinary ducts
In birds the migration is via the blood stream.

Chromosomal Sex
A. Drosophila
• Sex depends on the number of X chromosomes
– X or XY or XO = Male
– XX or XXX or XXY = Female

•
Human (mammals)
XY or XXY or XXYY or XXXY = Male (testis)
XX or XXX = Female (ovary)
XO = Female with incomplete ovarian development
XXY or XXYY or XXXY or XXXXY = testis but
impaired sperm production

Y
C. Conclusion
• The gene that controls testicular differentiation is
on the Y chromosome in mammals.
The Y Chromosome
A. Region coding for testicular development
• Short arm of Y chromosome
–H-Y Antigen
« no longer believed to be involved
–SRY
« Codes for a DNA binding protein
« acts as a transcription factor
« Causes
The Y Chromosome Cont.

Spermatogenesis
androgen production
long bone growth
• primary sex chord (seminiferous tubule) development
• Development of Sertoli Cells
• Anti-Mullerian Hormone production by Sertoli Cells
« absence of SRY
• 2nd sex chords (egg nests) develop
SRY and Birds
Gonadal Sex
• Birds
» females ZW, males ZZ
» W chromosome determines sex
» SRY is found on the Z chromosome
!
• SRY is not the only sex determining gene in
animals

Significance of DHT
• Androgen receptor has a higher affinity
for DHT
• Can get effects with low levels of
circulating testosterone
• Secondary sex characteristic tissue in
the male expresses 5α-reductase
