Q

control of the FRC

A
  • hypothalamus&raquo_space; pituitary&raquo_space; ovary cycle: H-P-O or H-P-A
  • hypothalamu releases GnRH (gonad releasing hormone)
  • then the anterior pituitary releases FSH, LH
  • then the ovaries release estrogen, progesterone (elevation of these inhibit GnRH- shuts off the cycle)

Q

anterior pituitary

A
  • FSH: follicule stimulating hormone which stimulates follicle (houses the eggs) in the ovary to grow and mature (from primary to mature egg)
  • LH: leutinizing hormone which after ovulation converts the empty follicle into the corpus luteum and supports this structure (which in turn supports an early pregnancy until the placenta forms)

Q

putting it all together: the menstrual cycle

A
  1. hypothalamus releases GnRH
  2. then FSH (and some LH) is secreted from anterior pituitary which works on the ovary and causes maturation of the egg
  3. ovary secretes higher levels of estrogen and estrogen will peak and work on endometrium and tells LH to surge
  4. LH surge will cause ovulation to occur
  5. after ovulation occurs makes corpus leuteum which will cause the progesterone to rise (estrogen is still high but not as high)
  6. progesterone works on the endometrial lining getting it ready for the egg
  7. if there isnt a pregnancy the corpus leuteum breaks down, progesterone and estrogen levels decline, which signals body to shed endometrial linning that built up and got ready then it says GnRH your on again and cycle starts over

Q

conception/fertilization

where does the egg meet the sperm?

how long does the egg survive?

how long can the sperm survive?

what is capacitation, acrosomal reaction, and zona reaction?

A
  • mature egg meets remaining sperm in the ampulla (outer 1/3 of the fallopian tubes)
  • egg survives 12-24 hours (fertile period = 6-12 hours): short period of time after ovulation for conception to occur
  • the sperm survives up to 72 hours (some longer): can have sex 3 days before ovulation and the sperm could survive for 3 days and fertilize an egg
  • capacitation: removal of sperms plasma membrane which allows acrosomal reaction
  • acrosomal reaction: allows production of enzymes to weaken carona radiata (allows sperm in)
  • zona reaction- blocks penetration of other sperm
42
Q

two process of growth

A
  1. cellular multiplication
  2. cellular differentiation
43
Q

cellular multiplication

A
  • 46 chromosomes (23 from egg and 23 from sperm)
  • then the zygote is formed (in the first 2 days)
  • then blastomere formed
  • then morula of 12-16 cells formed which differentiates into the inner and outer cell mass
  • inner cell mass is the blastocyte (100 cells): embryonic disc + amnion
  • outer cell mass is the trophoblast and these embed into the uterus and form the placenta: chorion + placenta
44
Q

zygote

A

1st 2 days
- 46 chromosomes

45
Q

cleavage begins: where does mitotic cellular replication begin

A
  • mitotic cellular replication begins in the tube
46
Q

morula

A
  • day 3 (after fertilization)
  • 16 cell ball
  • no change in size, about the size of a head of a pin
47
Q

blastocyte and trophoblast formation

A
  • day 4-5 after ovulation
    1. blastocyte: inner mass cells (stem cells) become: embryo, amnion, yolk sac (provides RBC till placenta can take over)
    2. trophoblast: outer cell layer becomes chorion and placenta
48
Q

when will you see a positive pregnancy test

A
  • once hcg is secreted and uterus is implanted
49
Q

implantation - trophoblasts

A
  • day 6-10
  • burrow into endometrium
  • early placenta
  • formation of chorionic villi: secrete hCG, maintains estrogen and progesterone and inhibits ovarian and menstrual cycles and the production of GnRH
50
Q

cellular differentiation

A
  • days 10-14 after ovulation where primary germ layers differentiate:
  • ectoderm, endoderm, mesoderm: these germ cells determine all of our organ systems
  • embryonic membranes form: chorion and amnion
    *Chorion= fetal part of placenta (where chorionic villi extend into the maternal blood filled endometrium)
    *Amnion: inner cell mass (blastocysts) and adheres to chorion
  • amniotic fluid
  • yolk sac for primitive RBC
  • umbilical cord
51
Q

when is cellular differentiation complete by

A
  • 10 week gestation
52
Q

chorion (outer membrane)

A
  • fetal part of placenta
  • chorionic villi embed into the uterus and extend into maternal blood filled endometrium
  • maternal blood filled Endometrium that bathes chorionic villi = intervillous space and is site for gas, nutrient, and waste exchange
53
Q

amnion (inner cell mass)

A
  • inner cell mass (blastocytes)
  • forms the amniotic cavity
  • adheres to chorion
54
Q

  • liver
  • pancreas
58
Q

morphologic development after conception

A
  • when these structures are most vulnerable to damage
  • week 1: fertilization- blastocyte
  • week 2: implantation
  • week 3-10 (or 3-8 weeks after conception): mesoderm, ectoderm, endoderm differentiate to form all organ system
  • embryo is most likely to be damaged during this time
  • there is all or none effect for the first 2 weeks of pregnancy prior to the implementation
59
Q

why is there an all or none effect for the first two weeks of pregnancy

A
  • since there is no blood supply to the egg some things wont affect the pregnancy while others will.
  • either not affected or loss of pregnancy occurs
60

  • allows for MS, GI, breathing practice, swallowing
  • protects fetus
  • keeps umbilical cord from crimping
76
Q

placenta

A
  • new temporary organ
  • composed of cells from 2 individuals
  • part maternal (decidua) and part fetal (chorion)
  • uterine lining develops “decidua basalis” that is receptive to chorionic villi
  • trophoblasts differentiate into:
    1. cytotrophoblasts (inner layer)
    2. synchtiotrophoblasts (outer layer)
77
Q

    2. human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)- wont be present till embryo implants
    3. progesterone
    4. estrogen
  • metabolic:
    -facilitates hydrostatic and osmotic pressure gradients for active and facilitated transport to get nutrients and remove waste
78
Q

vascular arrangment of the placenta

A
  1. moms arteries: puts in oxygenated blood
  2. fetus veins: picks up and takes the oxygenated blood to the fetus
  3. Fetus Artery: takes de oxygenated blood, waste away from the fetus to the placenta
  4. Moms veins: picks up the deoxygenated blood and waste
79
Q

goals of fetal circulation

A
  • maintain flow to the placenta
  • shunt blood away from the lungs and liver
  • doesnt need to use the lungs and liver so need structures to bypass these
80
Q

how are the goals of fetal circulation accomplished

A

3 holes
1. ductus venosus (liver bypass) umbilical to vein to IVC then to the atrium
2. foramen ovale (right ventricle bypass) hole b/t right and left atria
3. ductus arteriosis ( pulmonary artery/lung bypass) hole b/t pulmonary artery and descending aorta

97
Q

Chromosomal problems –autosomal dominant

A

-Autosomal dominant disorders (50% in offspring with 1 affected parent)
- one parent has little big (affected ) and the other has little little (unaffected)
-Equally affect both males and females
-Examples: Marfan Syndrome or Huntington Disease

98
Q

Chromosomal problems –autosomal recessive

A
  • Characterized by both parents being carriers (25% with disease, 25% unaffected, 50% carrier)
  • both parents are little big (carrier)
99
Q

Autosomal recessive disorders commonly assessed for in pregnancy:

A
  • Cystic fibrosis
  • Sickle cell anemia
  • Tay Sachs
  • Most metabolic disorders (PKU, etc.)
100
Q

X-linked recessive

A
  • Effects are limited to males
  • Males can not pass to sons – by definition, they are giving Y, and this is X-linked
  • 50% chance mother will pass gene to her sons
  • 50% chance her daughters will be carriers
  • 100% chance that daughters of affected men will be carriers
101
Q

Chromosomal problems-multifactorial defects

A
  • Neural tube defects
  • Cleft lip or palate
  • Congenital hip dysplasia
  • Pyloric stenosis
102
Q

Alcohol (or teratogens) before implantation

A

No blood supply so they won’t affect baby most likely before implantation which occurs 6-10 days after conception
