gonadal ridge is neither male nor female but at week 7 testosterone is formed which introduces male gonadal development. Testosterone determining factor is coded for on the Y chromosome. Therefore, if you have the Y chromosome it will produce testosterone determining factor and male gonadal differentiation can begin.

A

Why is an ectopic pregnancy dangerous?

The foetus will be squashed
Ectopic sites cannot expand and so rupture
Ectopic sites have other functions which are impaired by implantation

The main risk of ectopic pregnancies are that ectopic sites (usually the Fallopian tube) cannot expand to the same extent as the uterus, and the site ruptures, resulting in extensive haemorrhage.

Q

what are the different regions of the male urethra? [4]

A
  1. preprostatic urethra: is the shortest and extends from the bladder neck to the prostate. Surrounding the urethra at this level is the internal urethral sphincter.
  2. prostatic urethra is the region which passes through the prostate, and the ejaculatory and prostatic ducts drain into it at this level.
  3. membranous urethra passes through the deep perineal pouch, and is encircled by the external urethral sphincter. Finally, the
  4. spongy urethra is the longest part, travelling through the corpus spongiosum of the penis and terminating at the external urethral meatus.

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) -

Human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G)

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) -

Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ)

A

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) - converts AA to PGE2 promotes invasion and decidualisation

Heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (HB-EGF) - involved in attachment and invasion

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) - involved in angiogenesis

Human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) - inhibits antigen-specific lymphocyte response & decreases NK cell function

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) - regulated by IFNs to promote anti-proliferative effects

If the mother is rhesus negative and the fetus is rhesus positive:

the RBC that pass through into the fetus will sensitise the fetus system,

i) first pregnancy nothing happens
