Embryo/Teratogenesis Flashcards
The coeliac artery supplies the (fore/mid/hindgut).
Foregut
The Superior mesenteric artery supplies the (fore/mid/hindgut).
Midgut
The Inferior mesenteric artery supplies the (fore/mid/hindgut).
Hindgut
Which parts of the GIT arise from the foregut?
1) Esophagus
2) Stomach
3) 1st 2 parts of duodenum
4) Liver
5) Gallbladder
Where do the bones, muscles and cartilage in the head and neck region arising from?
Pharyngeal arches
In embryonic development what supplies the pharynx?
Thoracic aorta
Where do the esophageal epithelium and glands arise from?
Foregut endoderm
Where do the esophageal muscles arise from?
Mesoderm surrounding foregut
Initially, the embryonic esophageal lumen is filled, in development it undergoes ________ to become hollow.
Recanalisation
What are 3 examples of components of the GIT system is derived from the endoderm?
1) Mucosal epithelium
2) Mucosal glands
3) Submucosal glands
What are 6 examples of components of the GIT system is derived from the mesoderm?
1) Lamina propria
2) Muscularis mucosa
3) Submucosal connective tissue
4) Blood vessels
5) Muscularis externa
6) Adventitia/serosa
What component of the GIT system is derived from the neural crest cells?
Nerves of the submucosal and myenteric plexus
The dorsal border of the mesogastrium has (greater/lesser) curvature than the ventral border. During clockwise rotation, the dorsal mesogastrium would have (greater/lesser) momentum than the ventral mesogastrium.
Dorsal → greater curvature and momentum
Ventral → lesser curvature and momentum
Describe the rotation(s) of the embryonic stomach.
1) 90 degree clockwise → creates omental foramen (allows for communication btwn greater and lesser sacs of peritoneal cavity)
2) frontal plane → repositions superior and inferior regions of stomach
Rotation of the stomach brings the duodenum into position turning it into a __________ loop on the (right/left) side of the abdominal cavity.
C-shaped loop on the right side of the abdominal cavity
Initially, the embryonic duodenum lumen is filled, in development it undergoes ________ to become hollow.
recanalisation
The proximal 1/3 of the duodenum arises from the ________ while the distal 2/3 arises from the ______.
proximal 1/3 from foregut
distal 2/3 from midgut
What do the liver, gall bladder and biliary duct system arise from?
Liver bud/hepatic diverticulum
Which germ layer do hepatocytes arise from?
Endoderm
Which germ layer do Kupffer cells arise from?
Mesoderm
