Embyrology and Reproductive anatomy Flashcards
mutation in what gene can cause holoprosencephaly?
sonic hedgehog
Involved in patterning along anterior-posterior axis; CNS development; produced at base of limbs
sonic hedgehog
Necessary for proper dorsal-ventral axis organization. produced at apical ectodermal ridge
Wnt-7
Lengthening of limbs, stimulates mitosis of underlying mesoderm; Produced at apical ectodermal ridge
FGF
Involved in segmental organization of empbryo
Hox
Bilaminar disk forms
2 weeks
Trilaminar disk forms
3 weeks
Gastrulation
3 weeks
hCG secretion begins
within 1 week
limb buds begin to form
4 weeks
Can differentiate genitalia
10 weeks
Most susceptible to teratogens
3-8 weeks
Layers of bilaminar disk
epiblast, hypoblast
3 sections of ectoderm
surface, neuroectoderm, neural crest
Craniopharyngioma
benign rathke pouch tumor with cholesterol crystals, calcifications
Adenohypophysis origin
surface ectoderm

Chorions and amnions for dizoygotic twins
dichorionic
diamniotic
Cleavage of monozygotic after morula (4-8 d)
monochorionic diamniotic
Cleavage of monozygotic after blastocyst (8-12 d)
monochorionic monoamniotic
cleavage after 13 days
conjoined twins
Defect due to ACE inhib
renal damage
Defect due to alkylating agents
absence of digits, multiple anomalies
Defect due to aminoglycosides
CN VIII toxicity
Defect due to carbamazepine
neural tube defect, craniofacial, fingernail hypoplasia
