Development Of The Gut Flashcards
Gut is formed of
Endoderm (mucosa) and splanchnic mesoderm (lateral mesoderm: smooth muscle, connective tissue, serosa)
Gut endoderm parts
Gut endoderm separates from yolk sac endoderm during embryo folding; defined as foregut, midgut, hindgut
Foregut arterial supply
Celiac artery
Midgut arterial supply
Cranial mesentery artery
Hindgut arterial supply
Caudal mesentery artery
Foregut components
Stomach, cranial duodenum, and foregut diverticula (liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, ventral and dorsal pancreas)
Midgut components
Caudal duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, ascending colon, right transverse colon
Hindgut
Left transverse-colon, descending colon, rectum, cranial anal canal
Gut suspension dorsal abdominal wall
Suspended within the coelom (peritoneal cavity) by the dorsal mesentery
Ventral mesentery attachment
Found only attached to the stomach (ventral mesogastrium)
Greater omentum
Forms when stomach rotates left and dorsal megogastrium grows
Lesser omentum
Ventral mesogastrium becomes lesser omentum, and connects stomach to liver and liver to body wall via falcifor ligament
Falciform ligament
Connects stomach to liver and liver to body wall
Omental bursa
Pouch/ fold formed by greater omentum; ventral side is superfical leaf (holds spleen); dorsal side is deep leaf (holds pancreas)
Midgut loop
Rotates 270 degrees counter clockwise from ventral vein about cranial mesenteric arterial axis
Most specialized part of the gut
Ascending colon and rumen are most specialized part of the gut modified in domestic species to accomidate specialized diet
Digestive enzymes in stomach come from what type of gland
Exocrine
Nutrient absorption digestive tract
Absorption takes place across the mucosal wall (villi) into associated capillary beds of the blood vascular system and into lymphatic system
Lymphatic system digestive system
Absorbs all dietary fats including fat-soluble vitamins via lacteals (lymphatic capillaries) located inside each intestinal villus
Tunics of gut tube
Mucosa, submucosa, muscle, and serosa
Peritoneal organs serosa or adventitia
Serosa
Retroperitoneal organs serosa or adventitia
Adventitia
Main function of adventitia
Bind structures
Main function of serosa
Lubrication (reduce friction due to muscle movement)
Serous cavities
Pericardial, pleural, peritoneal
Organs with in a cavity serosa vs adventitia
Generally bounded by serosa
Organs bound to body wall
Generally covered by adventitia (more restricted in terms of movement)
Epithelial lining of alimentary canal
(Mucosa closest to lumen); includes specialization that increase absorptive area from folds in luminal wall to villi in mucosa and microvilli on the absorptive epithelial cells
Mesoderm gut
Mesoderm (derived from splanchnic mesoderm) forms the tunica submucosa, tunica muscularis, tunica adventita/ serosa
(These make up muscle, connective tissue, vessels, mesenteries, and serosa)
Muscularis externa adventita or serosa
Serosa
Oral cavity, thoracic, esophagus, ascending colon, descending colon, and rectum adventita or serosa
Adventita
Embryonic gut
Composed of endoderm and mesoderm in tubular arrangement
Endoderm embryonic gut
Forms epithelial lining of gut (tunica mucosa) where villi form; exceptions: oral cavity and anus have epithelial lining derived from ectoderm
Embryonic gut tube formation
Forms during embryo folding bc embryo disc grows more rapidly than extraembryonic tissue with which embryo is continuous, disk buckles up while edges fold under; gut endoderm recruits adjacent splanchnic mesoderm to form rest of gut (smooth muscle, connective tissue ect)
Dorsal mesentery
As embryonic folding is completed a neck of splanchnic mesoderm remains; connects gut tube along entire axial length to dorsal portion of abdominal body wall; primitive gut tube is suspended within the coelom/ coelomic cavity from dorsal abdominal body wall by dorsal mesentery
Dorsal mesentery product of
Fusion of left and right splanchnic mesoderm layers and is therefore a double-layer mesoderm with one side derived from left side and one from right side
Formation of dorsal mesentery
Separates coelom into left and right cavity
Ventral mesentery
Only attaches stomach to ventral body wall
Peritoneal cavity comes from
Coelomic cavity, forming parietal peritoneum and visceral peritoneum which are continuous
Tube with in a tube body plan
Outer tube is ectodermal forms skin inner tube is endodermal forms gut; space between two tubes is filled mainly with lateral mesoderm
Somatopleure
Outer tube (body wall) formed from this (composed of somatic mesoderm external to coelom plus ectoderm); also origin of amnion and chorion
Splanchnopleure
Inner tube (gut) composed of splanchnic mesoderm internal to coelom plus endoderm; also origin of allantois and yolk sac
Parietal peritoneum mesoderm
Derived from somatic mesoderm will line body wall
Visceral peritoneum
Derived from splanchnic mesoderm, will line organ
Lateral mesoderm
Somatic and splanchnic mesoderm both derived from lateral mesoderm as are extraembryonic membranes
Foregut
Supplied by branches of celiac artery; abdominal esophagus, stomach, and cranial half of duodenum, liver, and pancreas (diverticula of foregut)
Midgut
Supplied by branches of cranial mesenteric artery; include caudal part of duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, ascending colon, right side of transverse colon
Hindgut
Supplied by branches of caudal mesenteric artery; left part of transverse colon, descending colon, rectum, and anal canal
