Q

When do primary and secondary ossification centers complete?

A

primary end at age 6

Secondary at age 25

20
Q

Where are the primary ossification centers ? when do they start and end?
secondary ossification centers?

A

1 body 2 in forming arches 7weeks to 6 years old

secondary are on periphery of bodies and ends of processes and last till about 25yo.

21
Q

What parts of the vertebral column are bony at birth?

A

two Half -arches and the centrum (forms body)

22
Q

What forms the nucleus pulposus and the anulus fibrosis?

A

Notochord forms nucleus pulposus

Mesenchyme forms anulus fibrosus

23
Q

Where are the intervertebral discs formed from

A

Notochord and mesenchyme of somites

24
Q

The vertebral body is made from what neurological layer?

Describe the development of the notochord

A

Sclerotome.

Most of the notochord degenerates but the parts between the vertebral bodies end up forming the Nucleus pulposus

25
Q

Resegmentation occurs as each vertebra forms from the fusion of the caudal half of the sclerotome of one somite and the cranial half of the subjacent somite.
How many cervical somites do we have? why do we have 7 vertebrae?

A

We have 8 cervical somites (each with its own innervation),
The caudal half of O4 and the Cranial half of C1 forms the base of the occipital bone.

The caudal half of C8 and cranial half of T1 forms the T1 vertebrae. This is why we only have 7 cervical vertebrae

26
Q

Visceral mesoderm is initially between somites and finish at mid-vertebrae— these are called?

A

Intersegmental arteries (Visceral lateral plate mesoderm)

27
Q

outgrowth of neural tube initially at mid-somite level finishes between vertebrae. These represent the?

A

Spinal nerves (Neural tube- neuro ectoderm)

28
Q

Why do spinal nerves innervate multiple muscles?

A

Because Most muscles derived from multiple segments

29
Q

Myotomes undergo resegmentation end up spanning two segments of the vertebral column. What muscles are these?

A

Rotatores brevis (myoblast from a single myotome)

30
Q

Ribs and sternum are derived from two different layers?

A

Ribs- Sclerotome (just like vertebrae)

Sternum- Lateral plate - parietal layer (b/c part of body wall)

31
Q

What is it called if the left and right halves of the sternum don’t fuse appropriately?

A

Cleft Sternum

32
Q

LOF mutations of HOX9 results in? rodents*

A

rib cages with 13 ribs attached to sternum

33
Q

LOF Hox9 produces

A

floating ribs

34
Q

Hox inhibition where its usually expressed leads to

A

LOF

35
Q

Hox expressed where its usually not

A

GOF

36
Q

If T1-t10 had a GOF of hox9 what would be seen?

A

No ribs attached to sternum

37
Q

Hox10 prevents rib formation- so a GOF/LOF

A

GOF Hox10 has no ribs

LOF hox10 has all ribs

38
Q

HOX11 fuses vertebrae– sacrum

sometimes 6 fused , othertimes 4 fused. what is that called respectively?

A

Sacralization of L5 vertebra- Hox11 GOF at L5

Lumbarization of S1 vertebra- Hox11 LOF at S1

39
Q

What is it called when a vertebra doesnt form completely?

A

Hemivertebra

40
Q

Fracture of vertebral arch called

A

spondylolysis

41
Q

Dislocation between adjacent vertebrae subsequent to sondylolysis

A

Spondylosisthesis (congenital developmental defects or trauma)

42
Q

When one or more vertebral arches fail to develop or fuse
What called if no herniation of meninges or spinal cord?
What called if herniation of meninges/spinal cord?

A

Spinabifida (caudal neuropore failure)
_spinabifida occulta- no herniation
Spinabifida cystica

43
Q

Severe caudal failure, in which neural tissue is exposed and often becomes necrotic

A

Rachischisis (ra kis chi sis)

44
Q

What can indicate a neural tube defect?

A

Alpha fetoprotein increase in maternal serum or amniotic fluid (need Folic acid before pregnancy)

45
Q

2,3,4,5,6,8 weeks of development

A

2- uteroplacental exchange & bilaminar disc,
3, Gastrulation, nurulation, body folding
4. limb buds,
5. resegmentation of somites into vertebral bodies
6. chondrification centers form in vertebra
7-8. Primary ossification centers form- fingers developed
