Lecture 29 - urinary tract and adrenal embryo Flashcards
basic urinary system
kidney (filter plasma and excrete urine)
ureter (connect kidneys to bladder)
urinary bladder (stores urine)
urethra (carries urine from bladder to exterior)
what embryonic cells does the urogenital system develop from
intermediate mesoderm
what are the urogenital ridges
nephrogenic cord (urinary) genital/gonadal ridge (genital)
names of embryological kidneys
pronephros
mesonephros
metanephros
when are pronephros part of embryo
4th embryological week
what are pronephros consisted of
cervical nephrotomes and pronephric duct
TRANSITORY AND NON FUNCTIONAL
when do mesoneprhos appear
late in 4th week, functional TEMPORARILY
what do mesonephros consist of
nephrotomes >glomeruli
mesonephric tubules
mesonephric ducts
what are mesonephric ducts a remnant of
pronephros, opens into cloaca
when do mesonephros degenerate
Degenerate at end of first trimester (except for some adult male derivatives)
when do Metanephros develop and start to fucntion
develop in 5th, function in 9th
what happens after 12th week in terms of kidneys
majority of amniotic fluid is fetal urine
what are the permanent kidneys derived from
metanephric diverticulum aka uretic bud
what is the metanephric diverticulum an outgrowth of
distal mesonephric duct
what does metanephric diverticulum give rise to
ureters, renal pelvis, calices, and collecting tubules
another word for metanephric mass of intermediate mesoderm
metanephrogenic blastema
what gives rise to the nephrons
Metanephric mass of intermediate mesoderm
how do we get our permanent kidneys
Metanephric diverticulum and metanephric mass of intermediate mesoderm are interdependent and have reciprocal induction
