Q

Dermal vasculature

A

Blood vessels form within the subcutaneous mesenchyme, deep to the developing dermis, in the 4th week.
These branch to form a single layer of vessels in the dermis by the late 6th week and two parallel planes of vessels by the 8th week.
It is estimated that the skin of the neonate contains 20 times more blood vessels than it needs to support its own metabolism. This excess is required for thermoregulation.
Much of the definitive vasculature of the skin develops in the first few weeks after birth.

Q

Time for hair development

A

Hair follicles first appear at the end of the 2nd month on the eyebrows, eyelids, upper lip, and chin.
Most hair follicles are present by the 5th month.
Novel hair follicles do not form after birth.
About 5 million hair follicles develop in both males and females. The differences between the two sexes in the distribution of various kinds of hairs are caused by the different concentrations of circulating sex steroid hormones.

They initially form over most of the body, but in the later months of fetal development they are lost except in certain areas, such as the axillae, mons pubis, prepuce, scrotum, and labia minora.
They begin to secrete at puberty, producing a complex mix of substances that are modified by bacterial activity into odorous compounds.
These compounds may function mainly in social and sexual communication.

Q

Secondary teeth

A

Secondary (permanent) teeth:Early in the cap stage the dental lamina superficial to each tooth bud produces a small diverticulum that migrates to the base of the primary tooth bud and becomes the bud of the tooth that will replace it.
These secondary teeth develop to the bell stage and arrest until about 6 years of age.
Then they start to develop secondarily, destroying the root of the primary tooth in the process. The buds of the permanent molars burrows back into the posterior jaw.
The full human dentition consists of 32 teeth, including three molars, but the third molars (wisdom teeth) often fail to develop or to erupt.

Q

epithelial root sheath

A

The roots of the teeth begin to form in late fetal and early postnatal life. At the junction of the inner and outer enamel epithelia,the cervical loop, the cells proliferate and elongate to form theepithelial root sheath.
The mesenchyme just internal to the epithelial sheath differentiates into odontoblasts, which produce dentin.
Each root contains a narrow canal of dental pulp by which nerves and blood vessels enter the tooth.

in the fetus and gives rise to the bulk of fetal muscle.

95
Q

Postnatal muscle growth

A

involvessatellite cells, small quiescent cells underlying the basal lamina of the muscle fiber.
In response to exercise or muscle damage, satellite cells form myocytes, which permit further muscle growth.

96
Q

Smooth Muscle Formation

A

Smooth muscle of the gut and cardiac muscle forms fromsplanchnic mesoderm.
Smooth muscle contributing to blood vessels and hair follicles arises locally within the mesoderm.
Smooth muscle can also form from neural crest cells.
The iris and ciliary muscles are derived from cranial neural crest cells, as is the smooth muscle of the dermis of the head and neck.

97
Q

Somites

A

are transient segmented structures derived fromparaxial mesoderm.
progenitors of the axial skeleton, trunk musculature and associated tendons, trunk dermis, endothelial cells, and meninges of the spinal cord.

98
Q

Where do Presomitic paraxial mesoderm begin?

A

begins to segment into epithelial balls with a central cavity of loose core cells.

99
Q

Somite subdivison

A

Each somite subdivides into specific mesodermal components

100
Q

Sclerotome

A

Made up of ventromedial part plus core cells; epithelial to mesenchyme transformation.
Differentiates eventually into vertebrae and ribs.
The ventral portion of the sclerotome migrate to surround thenotochord and form the rudiment of thevertebral body;
those in the dorsal portion of the sclerotome surround the neural tube and form the rudiment of thevertebral archand vertebral spine;
More laterally located sclerotome forms thevertebral transverse processandribs.

101
Q

Dermomyotome

A

The remainder of the somite consists of a dorsal epithelial layer.
Gives rise to two general cell types, dermal and myogenic (skeletal muscle).
Represents the remaining part of the somite left when the sclerotome migrates.
Splits to form the dermatome and the myotome.

102
Q

Resegmentation of Sclerotomes

A

Each sclerotome is organized into cranial versus caudal regions.
The caudal portion of each sclerotome is cell dense, with higher cell proliferation
The cranial portion is less cell dense.
These differences result in segmentation of the neural crest cells and motor axons, which can only migrate towards the cranial portion of the sclerotome, as the caudal portion of the sclerotome is inhibitory for migration.
In later development, the sclerotomes split along this fissure, and the caudal segment of each sclerotome fuses with the cranial segment of the sclerotome caudal to it, with each of the two segments of the sclerotome contributing to a vertebra.
Resegmentation thus produces vertebrae that lieintersegmentally.

103
Q

Intrasegmental boundary, orvon Ebner’s fissure

A

The division between the cranial and caudal portions of each sclerotome.

104
Q

Result of sclerotomal resegmentation

A

Intersegmental arteries pass over the vertebral body.
Segmental spinal nerves exit between the vertebrae.
Seven cervical vertebrae but there areeightcervical spinal nerves.
Therefore, following resegmentation, the myotome that was initially associated with one sclerotome becomes attached to two adjacent vertebrae and crosses the intervertebral space.

105
Q

What happens to the 1st spinal nerve after sclerotomal resegmentation?

A

The 1st spinal nerve exits between the base of the skull and the 1st cervical vertebra (in alignment with the 1st cervical somite), and thus the 8th spinal nerve exits above the 1st thoracic vertebra (in alignment with the 8th cervical somite).

106
Q

What happens to the other spinal nerve after sclerotomal resegmentation?

A

Each spinal nerve exits just below the vertebra of the same number. Finally, each sclerotome is associated with an overlying myotome, which contains the developing muscle plate.

107
Q

A

Develops at the intra-segmental boundary.

108
Q

Nucleus pulposus

109
Q

Annulus fibrosus

A

develops from sclerotomal cells that are left in the region of the resegmentating sclerotome as its cranial and caudal halves split apart.

110
Q

Development of Ribs and Sternum

A

Concomitantly, transverse processes grow laterally along the dorsal side of each costal process.
In the cervical vertebrae, the costal and transverse processes give rise to the lateral and medial boundaries of theforamina transversaria(ortransverse foramen) that transmit the vertebral arteries.
In the lumbar region, the costal processes do not project distally and contribute to the transverse processes. The costal processes of the first two or three sacral vertebrae contribute to the development of the lateral sacral mass, orala, of thesacrum.

111

Costal processes

A

Small lateral mesenchymal condensations develop in association with the vertebral arches of all the developing neck and trunk vertebrae.

112

Ribs form from the distal tips of the costal processes; lengthen to form in the thoracic region.
The ribs begin to form and lengthen on day 35.
The first seven ribs connect ventrally to the sternum viacostal cartilagesby day 45 and are called thetrue ribs.
The five lower ribs do not articulate directly with the sternum and are called thefalse ribs.
The ribs develop as cartilaginous precursors that later ossify by endochondral ossification.

113
Q

Sternum formation

A

As the most cranial ribs make contact with them in the 7th week, the sternal bars meet along the midline and begin to fuse.
Fusion commences at the cranial end of the sternal bars and progresses caudally, finishing with the formation of the xiphoid process in the 9th week.
Like the ribs, the sternal bones ossify from cartilaginous precursors. The sternal bars ossify in cranio-caudal succession from the 5th month until shortly after birth.
Produce the definitive bones of thesternum: themanubrium, body of the sternum, andxiphoid process.

114
Q

Sternal bars

122
Q

127
Q

Primary ossification center

A

at the center of the long bone.

128
Q

Ossification

A

Ossification begins when the developing bone is invaded by multiple blood vessels that branch from the limb vasculature.
One of these vessels eventually becomes dominant and gives rise to thenutrient arterythat nourishes the bone.
The establishment of the vasculature brings in the pre-osteoblastic cells that differentiate into osteoblasts and replace the hypertrophic chondrocytes.
The osteoblasts lay downCollagen type Iand mineralized matrix.
Ossification spreads from the primary ossification center toward the epiphyses of the anlage to form a loose trabecular networkof bone.

129
Q

Epiphyseal cartilage plate (growth plateorphysis)

A

Persists between the epiphysis and the growing end of the diaphysis(metaphysis).
In the epiphyseal cartilage plate, distinct zones of chondrocytes are present, and because growth is predominantly along the long axis of the bones, the chondrocytes are arranged in columns allows the diaphysis to lengthen.
Growth of the body is complete at about 20 years of age; the epiphyseal growth plate completely ossifies.

130
Q

A

After birthsecondary ossification centersdevelop in the epiphyses, which gradually ossify.

131
Q

diaphyses

A

At birth, thediaphyses—or shafts of the limb bones (consisting of a bone collar and trabecular core)—are completely ossified, whereas the ends of the bones, called the epiphyses, are still cartilaginous.

132
Q

Q

Formation of synovial joints

A

First, the mesenchyme of the interzones between the chondrifying bone primordia differentiates intofibroblastic tissue(undifferentiated connective tissue).
Also area with the adjacent bone primordia and a central region of dense connective tissue.
The connective tissue of this central region gives rise to the internal elements of the joint.
Cartilage condenses to form thesynovial tissuethat will line the future joint cavity.
Its central zone gives rise to themenisciandenclosed joint ligaments, such as the cruciate ligaments of the knee. Vacuoles form within connective tissue and coalesce to form the synovial cavity.
Thejoint capsulearises from the mesenchymal sheath surrounding the entire interzone.

138
Q

Development of Limb Muscles

A

Both axial muscles of the trunk and muscles of limb develop similarly, with both groups of muscles arising from somitic myotomes and migrating ventrally—along the dorsolateral body wall into the ventral body wall in the case of axial muscles, and ventrally into the limb buds in the case of limb muscles.
Both groups of muscles are innervated by spinal nerves bordering their level of origin (by dorsal and ventral rami in the case of axial muscles, and by ventral rami only in the case of limb muscles).
The muscle of the diaphragm also arises from somitic myotomes.

139
Q

When & where does the migration of the myogenic precurosors occur?

A

Migration of the myogenic precursors into the limb buds starts during the 5th week of development.
The invading myoblasts form two large condensations in the dorsal and ventral limb bud.
The dorsal muscle mass gives rise in general to theextensorsandsupinatorsof the upper limb and to the extensorsandabductorsof the lower limb.
Ventral muscle mass gives rise to theflexorsandpronatorsof the upper limb and to theflexorsandadductorsof the lower limb.
In contrast to limb muscles, which arise from the somitic myotomes, the limb tendons arise from the lateral plate mesoderm.
