Q

What is the process for embryological development of smooth muscle?

A

Same as that of skeletal muscle except for the cell origin 1. Mesenchymal cells = myoepithelial cells in glands - Somatic mesoderm = Smooth muscle in vessels - Splanchnic mesenchyme (located around endoderm) = Other 2. Form myoblasts 3. These fuse to form Myotubes Remain mononuclear
