Development of the Neuromuscular System Flashcards
Muscle and connective tissue is mostly developed from
Mesoderm
Nervous tissue is mostly developed from
Ectoderm
is the alar plate on the roof plate side or the floor plate side
roof plate
Is the basal plate on the floor plate side or the roof plate side
floor plate
What kind of cells surround the central canal during the 4th week of developement
undifferentiated neuroepithelial cells
The early neural tube consists of ___________ epithelium
psuedostratified columnar
The cellular division and maturation of the neural tube cells leads to what
a population of bipotential progenitor cells
What do the bipotential progenitor cells become
which will give rise to either neuronal or glial lineage progenitor cells
What is the function of neuroglia cells
supporting cells of the CNS. Insulate, nourish, support and protect neurons
What does the marginal layer contain
neuronal processes (axons) white matter
What does the the mantle layer contain
cell bodies (gray matter)
_____ and ______ migrate outward to form a intermediate mantle or cortical zone. This will become the inner grey matter that contains neuronal cell bodies and neuroglia
Postmitotic neurons, glioblasts
Neuronal process (myelinated) move out to surround the developing grey matter and form the ______
Marginal zone (outer white matter)
In molecular regulation of nerve differentiation in the spinal cord ____ and ____ in the ectoderm establish a signalling center in the roof plate
BMP4 and BMP7
In molecular regulation of nerve differentiation in the spinal cord BMP4 in the roof plate upregulates a cascade of _____, incluiding ____ and ____, ____, and ______
TGF-beta proteins, BMP5 and BMP7, activin, dorsalin
in molecular regulation of nerve differentiation in the spinal cord SHH from ______establishes additional SHH signaling in the floor plate
Notochord
What are the three division of mesoderm
Paraxial mesoderm, intermediate mesoderm, lateral plate mesoderm
Where is paraxial mesoderm located
longitudinal blocks of tissue on either side of the notochord.
What does paraxial meosderm give rise to
axial skeleton and skeletal muscle
What does the intermediate mesoderm give rise to
Gives rise to the urogenital system (don’t forget urinary and GONADS)
What does lateral plate mesoderm give rise to
CT and skeleton of the limbs and smooth muscle and CT of viscera and blood vessels.
Which of the three divisions of mesoderm does skeletal muscle come from
Paraxial Mesoderm
Somites for in what direction
caudally from the occipital region
Segmentation is controlled by __________
pulses of gene expression
