Description

Figure 1. Schematic representation showing morphological change and somatic cell differentiation during the sex determination period, from the bipotential gonadal primordium at E10.5 to the differentiated testis at E12.5.
(A) At E10.5, the gonadal primordium appears as a long and narrow structure composed of the coelomic epithelium (CE) and the migrated CE cells (somatic cell precursors). CE cells express GATA4/WT1/SF1, and their ingression and asymmetric cell division are primarily controlled by Notch signaling with the NUMB distribution (magenta) and Notch signaling. PGCs migration occurs around E10.5.
(B) By E11.5, the gonadal primordium expands along the dorsoventral axis via the ingression of CE cells. Testis-specific Sry expression occurs in a center-to-pole manner along the anteroposterior axis. Beneath the CE, supporting cell precursors, SRY single- (cyan nuclei), SRY/SOX9 double- (blue nuclei), and SOX9 single- (deep-blue nuclei) positive cells, are distributed from the CE (dorsal)-to-mesonephric (ventral) side. SOX9-positive Sertoli cells secrete FGF9 and PGD2, and these factors upregulate and maintain Sox9 expression in the own and neighboring supporting cell precursors.

(C) At E12.5, testis cords are formed by Sertoli cells and germ cells (GCs). SOX9-positive Sertoli cells secrete paracrine factors, such as AMH and DHH. DHH signaling activates its downstream factor, GLI1, in fetal Leydig cell progenitors. Fetal Leydig cells with activated GLI1 (deep-green nuclei) produce androgens, which are converted to testosterone by Sertoli cells and then induce proper differentiation of the internal and external genital tract.
