This paper provides a detailed compilation of human prostatic development that includes
human fetal prostatic gross anatomy, histology, and ontogeny of selected epithelial and
mesenchymal differentiation markers and signaling molecules throughout the stages of
human prostatic development:(a) pre-bud urogenital sinus (UGS),(b) emergence of solid
prostatic epithelial buds from urogenital sinus epithelium (UGE),(c) bud elongation and
branching,(d) canalization of the solid epithelial cords,(e) differentiation of luminal and basal …
