Q

What is the Nucleus Pulpopus of the Intervertebral Disc derived from?

A

Leftover Notochord

***Mesoderm!

20
Q

The Notochord expands to form the Nucleus Pulposus, which is made of a ________ substance.

A

Mucoid

21
Q

This is composed of a fibrous tissue Sclerotome. It is fibrocartilage that surrounds the Nucleus Pulposus.

A

Annulus Fibrosus

22
Q

Ribs are also developed from __________ cells that grow out from costal processes of thoracic vertebrae.

A

Sclerotome

***Happens during 5th week

23
Q

T/F. Costal cartilage is made from lateral plate mesoderm.

A

False. It’s made from Sclerotome.

24
Q

What germ layer is the Sternum derived from?

A

Somatic layer of lateral plate mesoderm

25
Q

These are a group of related genes that control the body plan along a cranio-caudal axis. They help determine the shape of bones.

A

Hox Genes

26
Q

Which Hox genes give rise to Cervical Vertebrae?

A

Hox 4

Hox 5

27
Q

Which Hox genes give rise to Ribs?

A

Hox 6

28
Q

Which Hox genes give rise to Floating Ribs?

A

Hox 9

29
Q

Which Hox genes give rise to Lumbar Vertebrae?

A

Hox 10

30
Q

Which Hox genes give rise to Sacral Vertebrae?

A

Hox 11

31
Q

Which Hox genes are involved in Gain of Function?

A

Hox 6

Hox 10

32
Q

Explain what happens when there is a Gain of Function in Hox 6? What about Hox 10.

A

When Hox 6 is over expressed above (in cervical vertebrae area) then it causes CAUDALIZATION which will cause the cervical vertebrae to look like the vertebrae below, which would be thoracic vertebrae with ribs.

When Hox 10 is over expressed above (in thoracic vertebrae area) then it causes CAUDALIZATION which will cause the thoracic vertebrae to look like the vertebrae below, which would be lumbar vertebrae.

33
Q

Which Hox genes are involved in Loss of Function?

A

Hox 4
Hox 5
Hox 10

34
Q

Explain what happens when there is a Loss of Function in Hox 4, Hox 5, or Hox 10.

A

If there is a loss of Hox 4 in cervical vertebrae 2-5, then CRANIALIZATION will occur which makes the cervical vertebrae look like the vertebrae above it. In this case, they will all look like C1.

If there is a loss of Hox 5 in C3-T2, then CRANIALIZATION will occur and make them all look like C2.

If there is a loss of Hox 10 in the lumbar vertebrae, then CRANIALIZATION will occur and make them all look like thoracic vertebrae.

35
Q

A Cervical Rib abnormality (due to GOF of Hox 6) can contribute to _______ _______ _______. This is when the Subclavian and/or the Brachial Plexus are compressed and can cause issues (i.e., decreased blood flow, nerve problems).

A

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

36
Q

This is the term for the abnormality of Sternum protrusion. It occurs in males more often than females and usually isn’t evident until 11 years of age. Cause is unknown.

A

Pectus Carinatum (“Pigeon Chest”)

37
Q

This is the term for the abnormality of Sternum depression. The heart is displaced and can cause exercise intolerance. Occurs in males more often than females and is diagnosed in the 1st year of life.

A

Pectus Excavatum (“Funnel Chest”)

38
Q

What does the Myotome divide into?

A

Epimere

Hypomere

39
Q

What does the Epimere and Hypomere each give rise to?

A

Epaxial muscles – True muscles of back (Layers 4,5, and 6)

Hypaxial muscles

40
Q

What are Epaxial muscles innervated by? What germ layer are they from?

A

Innervated by Dorsal Rami

***Dorsal Rami (somatic) consist of Motor and Sensory fibers. Motor is Neuroectoderm, while Sensory is Neural Crest.

41
Q

What are Hypaxial muscles innervated by? What germ layer are they from?

A

Innervated by Ventral Rami

***Ventral Rami (somatic) consist of Motor and Sensory fibers. Motor is Neuroectoderm, while Sensory is Neural Crest.

42
Q

Hypomere limb myoblasts that migrate dorsally form what?

A

Posterior compartments (i.e., Triceps, extensors, etc.)

***Innervated by terminal branches of posterior cord (Radial and/or Axillary N.)

43
Q

Hypomere limb myoblasts that migrate ventrally form what?

A

Anterior compartments (i.e., Flexors, Pronators)

***Innervated by terminal branches from lateral and medial cords (Median N, Ulnar N., and Musculocutaneous N.)

44
Q

This is the term for the absence of Pectoralis major and minor muscles. It is associated with Syndactyly and there is an absence of 2 to 4 ribs. Many times the Trapezius, Palmaris Longus, and Serratus Anterior Ms. will also be missing.

A

Poland Syndrome

45
Q

Why do Poland Syndrome and Prune-Belly Syndrome occur?

A

Due to an abnormal migration of hypaxial muscles

***Remember, Hypaxial muscles derived from Mesoderm.

Mesoderm – Paraxial – Somite – Myotome – Hypomere – Hypaxial

46
Q

This is the term for partial or complete absence of abdominal musculature. It primarily affects males and is associated with Cryptorchidism (failure of one or both testes to descend) and malformation of the urinary tract and bladder (urethral obstruction).

A

Prune-Belly Syndrome

47
Q

Prune-Belly Syndrome is caused by an abnormal migration of hypaxial muscles, but how are the associated symptoms of Cryptorchidism and malformation of the urinary tract and bladder caused?

A

Due to abnormalities of the Intermediate Mesoderm.

***Remember Mesoderm divides into Paraxial, Intermediate, and Lateral Plate. Intermediate gives rise to urogenital (kidneys and gonads).
