Figure 1. Bmp signaling was enhanced with the prostatic epithelial cell differentiation. A and B, Coronal sections of caudal body of ICR mice at P1; pSmad1/5/8 was weakly detected in the immature prostatic epithelia. C–F, Coronal sections of AP at P7 (C and D) and P14 (E and F). E and F, pSmad1/5/8 signal was more prominently observed in the differentiated luminal cells (F, red arrowhead) than that of the basal cells (F, black arrow) in the AP. UR, urethra. Epi, epithelia; M, mesenchyme. Scale bars, 100 μm.
