Embryology of the Pharyngeal Arches and Ear Flashcards
what is gastrulation
formation of the trilaminar disc- happens in week 3
what happens in gastrulation
invagination of the epiblast cells through the primitive streak to form the definitive endoderm and mesoderm
what is the mesoderm organised into
paraxial, intermediate and lateral plates
what is the neural crest derived from
the ectoderm
what folding happens in the embry
lateral and craniocaudal
what does the neural crest form
melanocytes, craniofacial cartilage and bone, smooth muscle, peripheral and enteric neurons and glia, sympathetic ganglia
what do the pharyngeal arches form
much of the head an neck
when do the pharyngeal arches form
arch 1- day 22
arch 2 +3- day 24
arch 4+6- day 29
what is neuralation
formation of a round tube of neural cells
what number of pharyngeal arch doesnt form in humans
number 5
what are the three components of the pharyngeal apparatus
core pharyngeal arch
external pharyngeal cleft
internal pharyngeal pouch
what are the roles of the clefts and arches
separates the arches
what makes up the core pharyngeal arches
mesechymal tissue
what makes up the external pharyngeal cleft
ectoderm (as clefts on the outside)
what do the three germ layers form
ecto- central nervous system, peripheral nervous system, epithelia of eye, ear, nose, epidermis and appendages, mammary glands, enamel of teeth
meso- muscle, vasculature, lymph vessels, bone, connective tissue, kidneys, gonads
endo- epithial lining of GI and resp tracts, parenchyma of the tonsils liver thymus thyroid parathyroid pancreas, epithelial lining of bladder, tympanic cavity and antrum and auditary tube
what makes up the internal pharyngeal pouch
endo (as on the inside)
what makes up each pharyngeal arch
core mesenchyme derived from paraxial and lateral plate mesoderm
neural crest cells
cranial nerve component
artery (aortic arch arteries)
in the pharyngeal arch what does the core mesenchyme make
musculature of the face
in the pharyngeal arch what does the neural crest cells make
skeletal component of the face
in the pharyngeal arch what does the cranial nerve component make
innervation both sensory or motor
what nerves supply all the structures in the head and neck from pharyngeal arch 1
tigeminal nerve (V)- mandibular and maxillary divisions
what nerves supply all the structures in the head and neck from pharyngeal arch 2
facial nerve VII
what nerves supply all the structures in the head and neck from pharyngeal arch 3
glossopharyngeal nerve CN IX
what nerves supply all the structures in the head and neck from pharyngeal arch 4 and 6
vagus
what are the skeletal elements of the 1st pharyngeal arch
maxillary process (cranial portion):
- maxilla
- zygomatic bone
- squamous portion of temporal bone
mandibular process (caudal portion):
- forms meckels cartilage
- incus and malleus (ear ossicles)
- mandible
what are the muscles and nerves of the 1st pharyngeal arch
all musculature supplied by CNV3:
- muscles of mastication
- mylohyoid
- anterior belly of digastric
- tensor tympani
- tensor veli palatini
sensory supply to skin of face:
- V1 (ophthalmic)
- V2 (maxillary)
- V3 (mandibular)
