Lecture 2-3- Embryology Basics Flashcards
Which type of pathology examines tissues OUT of context (FNA, scrapes, smears, UA, serum profiles)
Clinical pathology
Which type of pathology examines tissues IN context (biopsies, necropsies)
Anatomic pathology
Which type of pathology will have flattened cells instead of cut cells?
Clinical Pathology
What is a tissue abnormality called?
Lesion
What is gastrulation
Formation of many lobes after cleavage
What is the fluid-filled cavity within a blastocyst?
Blastocoele
What are the three layers of the inner cell mass?
Ectoderm
Mesoderm
Endoderm
What does the ectoderm become?
Skin and nervous system
What does the mesoderm become?
Bone, muscles, connective tissue, circulatory system
What does the endoderm become?
Lining of GI and resp tracts, liver
What is a cyst?
An enodthelially-lined, fluid-filled mass
What is a hyperplasia vs a neoplasia?
both are increased cell number/growth. Hyperplasias result in cells that proliferate, but still respond to some signals. Neoplasias do not respond to signals.
What do neoplasms end in?
-oma
What is a benign neoplasm or ectodermal origin?
adenoma
What is a benign neoplasm of endodermal origin?
Adenoma
What is a benign neoplasm or mesodermal origin?
Fibroma
What is a malignant neoplasm of ectodermal or endodermal origin?
carcinoma
What is a malignant neoplasm of mesodermal origin?
Sarcoma
What is a mass with components of all three germ layers?
Teratoma
What does the notochord become and what is it made of
Vertebral column, made of mesoderm
What does the neural tube become and what is it made of?
Brain/spinal cord, made of ectoderm
What comes off of the ectoderm when the neural tube is formed?
Neural crest cells
