Espiñas do pene

Espiñas do pene dun gato doméstico

As espiñas do pene son estruturas queratinizadas con aspecto de espiñas que se encontran na glande ou talo do pene de moitos mamíferos, que poden estar implicadas na selección sexual. Estas espiñas foron descritas como estruturas simples cunha soa punta (macacos) ou complexas con dúas ou tres puntas por espiña (strepsirrinos).[1] A morfoloxía das espiñas do pene pode estar relacionada co sistema de apareamento.[2][3]

Mamíferos non-humanos

Os felinos, especialmente os gatos domésticos, teñen espiñas do pene. Despois da retirada do pene do gato, as espiñas funcionan como un angazo que rasca as paredes da vaxina da femia, o cal pode inducir a ovulación.[4][5] Moitos outras especies de félidos teñen espiñas do pene, pero son relativamente pequenas en xaguares e pumas, e non aparecen nos maracaiás.[6]

As espiñas do pene dos chimpancés e ratos son pequenas proxeccións superficiais feitas pola acumulación de capas de células queratinizadas na capa máis externa da sperficie da pel.[7][8] Aparecen tamén nos vombátidos,[9] coalas,[10] hienas manchadas,[11][12] fosas,[13] equidnas,[14] primates,[15][16][17] morcegos,[18] e varias especies de roedores.[19]

As espiñas do pene atópanse con frecuencia en especies de primates que forman tapóns copulatorios despois de aparearse.[20] Nos gálagos, as espiñas do pene poden formar un "bloqueo xenital" durante a copulación.[21]

Humanos

A diferenza dos chimpancés, unhas variantes morfolóxica relativamente comúns en humanos son as chamadas ou pápulas perladas do pene, son substancialmente máis grandes, parecen ser un embolsamento protuberante da superficie e as capas de tecido conectivo subxacente, e carece da rica innervación que presentan outros animais.[22][23] Ás veces descríbense como restos vestixiais das espiñas do pene.[7] Porén, as relacións entre as estruturas é aínda incerta.[24]

Cando a liñaxe dos homininos se dividiu nos xéneros Homo e Pan, unha secuencia de ADN regulatoria asociada coa formación de pequenas espiñas do pene queratinizadas perdeuse na liñaxe de Homo. Esta simplificación da anatomía do pene pode estar asociada cos hábitos sexuais dos humanos.[25] Nalgunhas especies que manteñen a expresión completa, as espiñas do pene contribúen a incrementar a sensación sexual e orgasmos máis rápidos.[26] Un hCONDEL (rexión altamente conservada do ADN que contén delecións en humanos) localizado preto do locus do xene do receptor de andróxenos pode ser responsable da perda das espiñas do pene en humanos.[25]

Aves

Os penes dalgunhas especies de aves presentan espiñas e filamentos parecidos aos dun cepillo.[27]
