Ventral prostate (VP) morphogenesis starts during embryonic development and continues for the first three postnatal weeks. Heparan sulfate (HS) affects paracrine signaling. Heparanase‐1 (HPSE) is the only enzyme capable of cleaving HS. HPSE releases the HS bioactive fragment and mobilizes growth factors. Little is known, however, about HS turnover and HPSE function during VP morphogenesis. In this...
Androgens induce rat prostate induction from the urogenital sinus epithelium at embryonic day 17.5. Subsequent morphogenesis, including epithelial cord growth, branching, and canalization, results from concerted paracrine interactions with the stroma. A significant number of paracrine factors bind heparan sulfate (HS). We hypothesized that interfering with overall sulfation could disrupt the signaling...
