A

dorsal mesocardium; epicardium

64
Q

Embryonic heart muscle cells

A

the early heart pump has NEURAL INTEGRATION and starts to pump

cells differentiate very early -> CONTRACTILE CELLS (actin and myosin) of a differentiated cell can undergo cell divisions like an undifferentiated cell, and continues to grow at the same time

satellite cells repopulate muscle cells and replace muscle cells

diffusion of “nutrient” is not enough from cell to cell and at a certain point in development it is NOT enough to supply the embryo so…
- vessels//circulation are needed to deliver gases and nutrient to the embryo body
- this is why the heart develops so early

65
Q

All circulatory systems have 3 parts

A

1.) Pumps (heart)
2.) Pipes (major and minor vessels)
3.) Fluid (blood/liquid/cells)

66
Q

Overview of circulatory system

A

1.) All aspects of the circulatory system come from the mesodermal cell lineage
2.) The PUMP appears early in embryonic development and is often the 1st functional organ
3.) The pump and the pipes have DIFFERENT SPATIAL ORIGINS and are NOT initially connected
4.) The FLUID that fills the pipes also has a different origin
5.) All circulatory systems start out OPEN; some later close like humans

67
Q

If NO closure/fusion of endocardial tubes (ventral portion) into one tube

A

Cardia bifida

68
Q

(ventral portion) Neural tube is closing and the endocardial tubes are ______ and starting to ______

A

closing; contract

69
Q

(The pump) ________ cells enter the body cavity in 2 streams:

A

mesodermal;
1.) somatic/parietal and lateral
2.) visceral/ventral/splanchnic

70
Q

(The pump) the _______ mesoderm collects into a pair of hallow tubes that merge at the midline

A

ventral

71
Q

(The pump) The fused tubes create a central, 2 layered vessel consisting of:

A

Endocardium
- inner lining of the chambers

Myocardium
- cardiac muscle cell

72
Q

(The pump becomes specified) The conjoined cardiac tube expands to create a series of chambers (caudal to cranial)

A

a.) Sinus venosus (collects blood from body)
b.) Atrium (a little pumping station)
c.) Ventricle (bigger pumping station)
d.) Bulbus Cordis
e.) Truncus Arteriosus (the outlet port)
f.) Aortae (transfers blood to the body)

73
Q

Heart looping and septation

A

1.) Rapidly dividing cells contort the tube into an S-SHAPE toward R side of the embryo

2.) The ventricular and atrial portions become DILATED

3.) ENDOCARDIAL CUSHIONS are seeded by MESENCHYMAL CELLS to separate the atria from ventricles

4.) MEMBRANOUS SEPTA divide the atria/ventricles into L and R sides

5.) VALVES eventually direct one-way blood flow

74
Q

Looping steps

A

1.) Middle of the heart tube bends to R side due to increase cell division; asymmetry, and this influences development of future organs

2.) cell divisions also causes the ventricle and atrium to become larger and or dilate

3.) a loop in the heart tube occurs and the most caudal portion becomes the most cranial portion and the atrium (A) is rotated about the ventricle (V)

75
Q

During week 4, the heart tube undergoes looping: the tube _______, walls _______, and sections move towards appropriate locations to continue development

A

lengthens; thicken

76
Q

Heart wall

A

the heart tube pushes out and starts to form walls between the atria and ventricles but the walls do not close all the way due to valve formation

77
Q

Cushioning formation

A

4.) cardiac mesoderm in the wall of the atria secretes cardiac jelly (collagen, hyaluronic acid, proteoglycans, and glycosaminoglycans) - the jelly provides an area where mesodermal cardiac cells can migrate and form cushions

78
Q

Septation

A

5.) This is a walling off of the ventricles into a L and R division

the walls of the ventricles are thick and septum arises for the floor of the ventricle and extends upwards, becoming more complicated

another septa grows from the top and center

the foramen ovale exists between the atrial septa until later in development to allow blood flow between atria

79
Q

Septation continued

A

flaps at the atria are very porous and embryonic circulation bypasses the lungs because the embryo receives O2 from the mother; blood flows from atrium to atrium through the foramen ovale

80
Q

the foramen _____ is a requirement for blood circulation in the embryo

A

ovale

81
Q

At birth, pressure in the L atrium becomes _____ and the flaps at foramen ovale _____ and blood flows on either side of the heart; pressure from both sides _____ ovale

A

low; close; closes

82
Q

Congenital heart defects

A

1.) The foramen ovale is the embryonic passage between the L and R atria
2.) If this hole does NOT close after birth, there is a cardiac septal defect
3.) There are 2 major cardiac septal defects

83
Q

2 major cardiac septal defects

A

1.) Atrial septal defect (ASD)
- hole between L and R atria

2.) Ventricular septal defect (VSD)
- hole between L and R ventricles

84
Q

Embryonic mammal lungs are on hold during gestation

A

1.) Embryonic lungs are collapsed and resistant to blood flow

2.) Oxygenated blood moves from the placenta -> embryo body -> sinus venosus -> L atria and ventricle -> R atria and ventricle -> embryo body -> placenta

3.) HOLES in the heart allow for this to happen

4.) blood is mixed in the fetal heart and only partially oxygenated

85
Q

After birth, the lung circulation is activated

A

1.) The placenta is discarded; the lung circulation begins

2.) Surfactants help expand lung alveoli; blood flow increases

3.) Within days or weeks of birth, the passages between the L and R heart chambers close

4.) Blood now moves from the body -> sinus venosus -> R atrium -> R ventricle -> lungs -> L atrium -> L ventricle -> aorta -> body

86
