Figure 1.

AR uptake was observed in basal keratinocytes in control group. AR involvement was limited to the lower 2/3 of the epidermis in the hypospadias group (IHC Staining, 200 X).

Figure 4.

In the control group, FGFR-2 uptake was observed in more than 50% of Keratinocytes (Epidermis Pattern 3) and clustered positive cells in more than 50% of all visible dermal cells (Dermis Pattern C). Limited to basal involvement in hypospadias group (Epidermis Pattern 1) and involvement of less than 50% of dermal cells (Dermis Pattern B) (IHC Staining, 200 X).
In the control group, FGFR-2 uptake was observed in more than 50% of Keratinocytes (Epidermis Pattern 3) and clustered positive cells in more than 50% of all visible dermal cells (Dermis Pattern C). Limited to basal involvement in hypospadias group (Epidermis Pattern 1) and involvement of less than 50% of dermal cells (Dermis Pattern B) (IHC Staining, 200 X).

Figure 5.

In the control Group, more than 50% of keratinocytes were involved (Epidermis Pattern 3) and less than 50% of dermal cells are involved (Dermis Pattern B) for FGF-8. In the hypospadias group, it was limited to basal involvement (Epidermis Pattern 1) and involvement of less than 50% of dermal cells (Dermis Pattern B) (IHC Staining, 200 X).
In the control Group, more than 50% of keratinocytes were involved (Epidermis Pattern 3) and less than 50% of dermal cells are involved (Dermis Pattern B) for FGF-8.
