Study Notes
Reproductive Development
- The Wolffian duct gives rise to the epididymis, vas deferens, and seminal vesicles under the influence of testosterone.
Hormone Regulation
- GnRH (gonadotropin-releasing hormone) stimulates the production of FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) and LH (luteinizing hormone).
Mullerian Duct Inhibition
- The Mullerian duct is inhibited by AMH (anti-Müllerian hormone), also known as MIS (Müllerian-inhibiting substance).
Testosterone Production
- Leydig cells produce testosterone.
Formation of Genital Structures
- Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), the product of enzymatic conversion of testosterone, induces the formation of the scrotum, penis, and prostate.
