Q

What are the steps in neurulation?

A
  • cell proliferation at margins of neural plate, created neural groove between neural folds
  • cells lining groove give rise to cells of CNS
  • margins of neural folds grow toward each other and fuse in midline to form neural tube

Q

What is histogenesis?

A
  • formation of 3 layered tube consisting of
    1. internal ependymal layer
    2. middle layer of mantle cells that will become gray matter
    3. external layer that will become white matter

neurons develop from neuroblasts and migrate into the middle mantle layer

17
Q

What are the 5 cephalic vesicles formed at the end of wk 4 in development from the initial 3 vesicles?

A

from prosencephalon [fore]

  • telencephalon
  • diencephalon

from mesencephalon [mid]
- mesencephalon

from rhombencephalon [hind]

  • metencephalon
  • myelencephalon
18
Q

What is the fate of the telencephalon?

A

becomes cerebral hemispheres

19
Q

What is the fate of the metencephalon?

A

pons and cerebellum

20
Q

What is the fate of the myelencephalon?

A

medulla

21
Q

What are the 3 main flexures in the 5 vesicle brain?

A
  1. mesencephalic
  2. pontine [delineates metencephalon from myelencephalon aka pons from medulla]
  3. cervical [ delineates myelencephalon aka cerebellum from spinal cord]
22
Q

When does procencephalic development occur in gestation [wks]?

A

wks 5-6

23
Q

When does cortical formation occur in gestation [wks]?

A

wks 8-24

24
Q

What is the sulcus limitans?

A
  • shallow longitudinal groove along length of neural tube

- separates alar [sensory] and basal [motor] plots

25
Q

What is the alar plate?

A

the dorsal half of the mantle

26
Q

What is the basal plate?

A

the ventral half of the mantle

27
Q

What does the alar plate give rise to?

A
  • neuronal cell bodies that form nuclei that receive/relay sensory
28
Q

What does basal plate give rise to?

A
  • origin of motor neurons of spinal cord

- axons of basal plate derivatives form ventral roots of spinal nerves

29
Q

Which cranial nerves are recognizable in embryo at 5-6 wks?

A

all but CN 1 and CN 2

30
Q

How does the organization of basal and alar plates in brainstem differ from in spinal cord?

A
  1. in medulla and pons: alar plate is lateral to basal plate [rather than dorsal]
  2. migration of neuroblasts of both plate from ventricular floor to other locations
  3. special sensory + motor structures of head require new/different cell groups for innervation
31
Q

Which plate do structures that are rostral to midbrain develop from?

A

alar plate

32
Q

Which plate does the cerebellum develop from?

A

alar plate

33
Q

What does the sulcus between telencephalon and diencephalon develop into?

A

horizontal transverse cerebral fissure

34
Q

What does the sulcus limitans develop into?

A

hypothalamic sulcus

35
Q

When does myelination occur in development?

A
  • begins early in 3rdt rimester, most rapid period of myelination occurs in first 2 years of life
  • ocurs early for motor-sensory roots, special senses, and brainstem
36
Q

What are the 3 main stages of CNS development that can be disrupted?

A
  1. neuration [wks 3-4]
  2. prosencephalic development [wks 5-6]
  3. cortical formation [wks 8-24]
37
Q

What are adult derivative of telencephalon [wall and cavities]

Q

What are adult derivative of diencephalon [wall and cavities]

A

cavity: 3rd ventricle

39
Q

What are adult derivative of mesencephalon [wall and cavities]

A

cavity: cerebral aqueduct

40
Q

What are adult derivative of metencephalon [walls and cavities]

A

wall: pons and cerebellum
cavity: upper part of 4th ventricle

41
Q

What are adult derivative of myelencephalon [wall and cavities]

A

wall: medulla
cavity: lower part of 4th ventricle

42
Q

What does the notorchord become?

A

nucleus pulposus of intervertebral disc in adalt
