Lecture 4: digestive system Flashcards
the endodermal gut tube is formed
by body folding
epithelial tube is surrounded by..
splanchnic mesoderm
endoderm gives rise to the
epithelial cells of the gut tube (pharyngeal foregut, digestive system and respiratory system)
epithelial linning and glands of the digestive system
splanchnic mesoderm gives rise to
smooth muscle, connective tissue, blood vessels, visceral mesothelium
vitelline duct
communication between the midgut and the yolk sac
-this connection becomes the core of the umbilical cord
primordial gut is closed at
the ends of the oropharyngeal membrane and the cloacal membrane
bilayer dorsal mesentery
suspends the abdominal viscera in the body cavity
ventral mesentery
connects the stomach and liver to the ventral body wall
regions of the pharyngeal foregut
buccopharyngeal membrane to respiratory diverticulum
regions of the proper foregut
caudal to pharyngeal tube to superior duodenum (superior to ampulla of pancreatic duct)
regions of the midgut
inferior to bile duct/pancreatic duct to the junction of the right two-thirds and left third of the transverse colon
regions of the hindgut
left third of transverse colon to the cloacal membrane
derivatives of the foregut
- lower respiratory tract
- esophagus to duodenum (proximal to bile duct only)
- liver and biliary apparatys (hepatic ducts, gallbladder and bile duct), pancreas
- the artery of the foregut is the celiac trunk
derivatives of the midgut
- inferior duodenum to the right 2/3 of transverse colon
- the artery of the midgut is the superior mesenteric artery
derivatives of the hindgut
- left 1/3 of transverse colon to the rectum upper anal canal
- endoderm of the handgun also forms the epithelial lining of the bladder and urethra
- the artery of the hindgut is the inferior mesenteric artery
