Dev 1 Flashcards
rhombencephalon
4th ventricle
diencephalon
3rd ventricle
cerebral hemispheres
lateral ventricles
interventricular foramen (of Monro)
connects a lateral ventricle to the 3rd ventricle.
cerebral aqueduct (or aqueduct of Sylvius).
The 3rd ventricle is connected to the 4th ventricle via this
neuroepithelial cells
the walls of the neural tube are made of rapidly dividing pseudostratified cells
Neuroepithelial layer
Once the neural tube closes the neuroepithelial layer (currently only made of neuroepithelial cells) will begin to differentiate to give rise to another cell type. This other cell type are primitive nerve cells (aka neuroblasts). These primitive nerve cells will form their own cell layer called the mantle layer. This mantle layer surrounds the neuroepithelial layer.
Neuroepithelial layer – primitive neural tube cells, will be neuroblasts to neurons. Axons and dendrites occupy mantle layer.
mantle layer
will become gray matter of spinal cord
Marginal layer
The marginal layer will become the white matter of the spinal cord.
Basal plates
The ventral thickenings on the left and right sides are called the basal plates - spinal cord, comes from mantle layer.
will form the ventral (motor) horns of the spinal cord
Alar plates
dorsal thickenings on the left and right sides are called the alar plates.
will form the dorsal (sensory) horns of the spinal cord
Adults have no
Adult – no neuroepithelial layer.
intermediate horn
An additional horn will form the basal plate called the intermediate horn that will contain the presynaptic sympathetic nerve cell bodies, and will only exist from T1-L2/3.
Glial cells
Astrocyte
- Oligodendroglia
- Ependymal
- Microglia
- Schwann (neural crest)
ependymal cells
which are the cells lining the central canal of the spinal cord and the other ventricular spaces within the CNS.
association neurons (aka interneurons).
Axons of the alar plate (dorsal sensory horn) will either ascend of descend within the marginal layer of the spinal cord as association neurons (aka interneurons).
General) Somatic Efferent
GSE
Somatic striated muscles (skeletal muscles that contract voluntarily except for those derived from the pharyngeal arches).
Special Visceral (brachial) Efferent SVE
Striated (skeletal) muscles derived from the pharyngeal arches, except for CN XI.
General Visceral Efferent
aka the autonomic nervous system.
(General) Somatic Afferent (general sensory)
GSA
General sensations such as touch, temperature & pain.
