Q

Medial Nasal prominence is regulated by?

What happen to it?

A

Regulated by PDGFRA

Shifted towards midline and fuses together to form the intermaxillary segment (philtrum)

22
Q

Lateral nasal prominence is separated from the maxillary prominence by?
Fuses with what by week?

A

Nasolacrimal groove separates it from maxillary prominence but merges with the prominence by end of wk 6

23
Q

Auricular primordia:

A

Six auricular hillocks will form around the first pharyngeal groove
Mandible development will push the ear from neck to side of head at the level of the eyes

24
Q

What signaling molecule is responsible for apoptosis of cells in the mandibular process (and webbings of hand and feet)

A

BMP

25
Q

Examples of proportion and position changes during development

A

nose is initially flat and mandible is underdeveloped. Reaches form at 14 weeks.
As brain develops, the cranial cavity expands and orbits move from lateral to anterior positions

26
Q

Nasal cavity development:

A

Nasal placodes form the nasal pits > mesenchyme form medial and lateral nasal prominence induce pits to be deeper and form primordial nasal sacs > sacs grow and oronasal membrane separates it from the oral cavity (this ruptures at wk 6)

27
Q

Primordial choanae:
Nasal conchae
Olfactory epithelium:

A

Connection between nasopharynx and nasal cavity
Forms superior, middle and inferior turbinates, inflamed with rhinitis
Specializes into the olfactory nerve, loss of smell sign of Parkinson’s

28
Q

Timing of palatogenesis

A

Development between wk 6 - wk 12. Critical period wk 6 - start of wk 9

29
Q

Primary palate:

A

Fusion of median nasal prominence to form the median palatine process

30
Q

Secondary palate:

A

Develops from the fusion of the lateral palatine process (via mesenchymal projections). Basically replaces the oronasal membrane

31
Q

How is the hard palate formed?

A

Bone extends from the maxillae and palatine bones to the lateral palatine processes to form the hard palate
Posterior portions do not ossify (soft palate and uvula)
Palatine raphe is formed (line of fusion)

32
Q

What is the incisive fossa?

A

Foramen thing at the frontal palate. Remnant of the nasopalatine canal

33
Q

How is the nasal septum formed?

A

Downward growth from internal parts of medial nasal prominences and fuses with lateral palatine process (anterior to posterior)

34
Q

Cleft lip and palate:

A

Defects in fusion of palatine bones

Most common form: unilateral left cleft lip

35
Q

Choanal Atresia:

A

Associated with bony abnormalities of pterygoid plates and midface growth abnormalities. Deviated septum
Upper airway obstruction, noisy breathing, canosis that worsens with feeding and Improves with crying

36
Q

How does the Anterior 2/3 of the tongue develop?

When does it start to develop?

A

Week 4: median lingual swelling (median tongue bud) appears
Lateral tongue swellings (distal tongue buds) then develop on either side of the median swelling. Induced by mesenchyme from PA1

37
Q

How does the pharyngeal (posterior 1/3) part of the tongue develop?

A

Copula comes from ventromedial parts of PA 2
Hypopharyngeal eminence comes from ventromedial parts of PA 3 and 4.
HPE overgrows the Copula

38
Q

Terminal sulcus

A

Fusion of oral and pharyngeal parts occur here

39
Q

Innervated by ….

A

Myoblasts of occipital myotomes

CN XII

40
Q

Tongue innervation:

Anterior 2/3

A

Mucosa: Lingual N.
Taste: CN VII (via chorda tympani)
Taste buds: CN IX
Musculature: CN XII

41
Q

Tongue innervation:

Posterior 1/3

A

Mucosa: Glossopharyngeal
Musculature: Hypoglossal
Sensation to pharynx: Vagus
Palatoglossus M: Vagus

42
Q

Glossoschissis
Ankyglossia
Macroglossia

A
  • Bifid tongue (two point ends)
  • Short frenulum, problems with breastfeeding/speaking
  • large tongue (associated with Beckwith-Wiedemann and Down syndromes)
43
Q

How do teeth develop?

A

Neural crest and epithelium on the jawbone communicate and induce the dental laminae (oral epithelium that follow curves of primitive jaws)
Tooth buds develop

44
Q

Cap stage of tooth development:

A

Tooth bud becomes cap shaped when invested with mesenchyme

45
Q

Tooth bud composition:

A

Enamel (ectoderm)
Dental papilla (inner part of the tooth with dentin and pulp)
Dental follicle/sac (mesenchyme from mesoderm, surrounds the dental papilla and enamel organ

46
Q

Bell stage of tooth development:

A

Enamel differentiates and causes enamel organ to become bell shaped

47
Q

Odontoblasts

Ameloblasts

A
  • Form the dental papilla cells next to inner enamel epithelium. Predentin will calcify to form dentin
  • Produces enamel. Inner enamel epithelium differentiates in response to dentin production
48
Q
How do these root components develop? 
Epithelial root sheath
Pulp
Cementum
Periodontal ligament
A

Epithelial root sheath forms from the fusion of inner and outer enamel epithelium
Pulp forms from central dental papilla
Inner cells of the dental sac form cementoblasts
Outer cells of the dental sac form PDL

49
Q

Tooth eruption:

A

Root of tooth and crown will erupt through the oral epithelium
Mandibular teeth erupt first
Deciduous root is reabsorbed by odontoclasts (teeth osteoclasts) while crown and upper root are shed

50
Q

Decidious and permanent teeth development

A

Wk 10: decidious teeth appear as extensions of the dental lamina
Nondeciduous molars form as buds from posterior part of the dental lamina. Tooth buds appear at different times (most during fetal period, but buds for 2nd and 3rd molars develop after birth)

51
Q

What induces the formation of the dental papilla?

A

Mesenchyme cells interacting with ectoderm cells
