embryo devel of GI Flashcards
SOX2
specifies esophagus
PDX2
specifies doudenum
CDXC
small intestine
CDXA
large intestine
Two tissue layers required for embryological dev of GI
splanchnic mesoderm and endoderm
Endoderm
epithelial lining and glands
Splanchnic mesoderm
lamina propria, submucosa, muscularis layers, serosa/adventitia
the gut is suspended initially by a two layered peritoneum. what is it called
dorsal mesentery
foregut structures
esophagus
stomach, 1/2 duodenum,
liver, gall bladder, pancreas, spleen
midgut structures
1/2 duodenum jejunum ileum cecum and appendix ascending colon 2/3 transverse colon
hindgut
1/3 transverse colon descending colon sigmoid colon rectum upper part of anal canal
foregut sympathetic innervation
preganglionic, splanchnic, preaortic, and postgang nerves follow what arteries?
Pregang: T5-T9
splanch: Greater splanch n.
Preaor: celiac
postgang follow the celiac a.
midgut sympathetic innervation
preganglionic, splanchnic, preaortic, and postgang nerves follow what arteries?
pregang: T9-T12
splanchnic n. lesser splanchnic n
preaortic n. superior mesenteric
postgangs follow superior mesenteric a
hindgut
preganglionic, splanchnic, preaortic, and postgang nerves follow what arteries?
pregang: T12-L2
splanchnic n: least splanchnic n
preaortic gang: inferior mesenteric n.
postganglionic axons follow: inferior mesenteric a
foregut parasym
pregang neuron bodies, nerve, location of ganglia
brainstem,
vagus n.
organ walls
midgut parasym
pregang neuron bodies, nerve, location of ganglia
brainstem,
vagus n.
organ walls
hindgut
pregang neuron bodies, nerve, location of ganglia
S2-S4
pelvic splanchnic n
organ walls
median umbilical ligament is the remnant of the
urachus (the continuation of the allantois)
median umbilical ligament is the remnant of the
umbilical arteries
lateral umbilical ligament holds the
inferior epigastric a. and v.
Describe the basic mechanism of the laryngeotreacheal diverticulum’s development in the lungs and the abnormalities that can occur
laryngeotracheal diverticium buds come off a tube of a primitive pharhynx —> they develop into the lungs while the pharynx tube differentiates into the esophagus/pharhynx. the laryngotracheal tube is the initial bud: between it and the pharynx, a “tracheosophageal fold” splits the laryngeotracheal bud from the esophagus. that split is where things can go wrong.
fistulas vs atresia
fistula is an inappropriate connection between tubes
atresia is a tube that inappropriate ends in a blind pouch.
