Rat preputial sebocyte differentiation involves peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors.
The primary modifications were a) exclusion of dorsolateral prostate weights; and b) specification of castration on or after postnatal day (PND) 42, because some animals castrated before PND42 in phase 1 did not undergo preputial separation, compromising glans penis (GP) dissection.
