sievert H&N development Flashcards
Three main types of primodia
placodes
somites
pharyngeal/branchial arches (branchial = pharyngeal… they’re synonyms)
location of branchial cleft and branchial pouch, respectively
Cleft on outside
Pouch on inside
both of these are invaginations in the inferior portion of pharyngeal/branchial arches
define a placode
ECTOdermal thickening (of the neural tube) that eventually only allows for the development of the ear or lens or olfaction
list the three placodes
olfactory (in forebrain)
lens (in outpouching of forebrain)
otic (around hindbrain)
What makes a somite preotic or postotic?
relative to the location of the otic placode.
preotic (upper to otic placode)
postotic (lower to otic placode)
where does the olfactory epithelium come form, and what does it do?
- comes from the nasal/olfactory placode
- fxn: comprises the true organs of smell, the ones w/all the receptors in the olfactory epithelium in the high superior border of nasal cavity.
etiology and fate of nasal/olfactory placode
- Forebrain (telencephalon) has a bulge, this structure is called the olfactory bulb
- This olfactory bulb induces the olfactory placode to start thickening.
- The placode makes the primary olfactory epithelium.
- Primary olfactory epithelium will end up growing up into the olfactory bulb
- How? By have to penetrating through the cribriform plate of the ethmoid bone
how is the lens placode different than the other two placodes?
the other two make the sensory bodies of the nervous system BUT lens placode has NOTHING to do w/receptors… it only makes the lens
how are lens made?
- First of all, an outpocketing of the diencephalic midbrain INDUCES the surface ectoderm to thicken, forming the lens placode
- Lens placode thickens and invaginates and breaks off to make the lens.
- The remaining part of the surface ectoderm, the part that didn’t beak off, becomes the cornea
how does the retina form?
the retina forms by an outpocketing of the diencephalon, and as the retina develops, it will be covering over the lens (basically lens placode invaginates into the developing retina)
what does the otic placode make, and how?
inner ear—membranous labyrinth, sensory neurons, and ganglion cells of CN 8
Otic placode is induced by the nervous system, specifically the hindbrain; the surface ectoderm ends up invaginating, forms otic vesicle, and then forms the future innr ear
how is the future middle ear made?
the endodermal lining of the pharynx (as part of the 1st branchial/pharyngeal pouch) makes a bilateral outpouch–this outpouch becomes the future middle ear cavity
how does the future external canal get made?
an additional invagination of surface ectoderm (branchial/pharyngeal groove)—not part of placode but is associated w/ cleft
from what does the tympanic membrane form?
mesenchyme situated between the middle and inner ear will eventually make the t-membrane
why is ear so susceptible to environmental effects?
coz it takes so long to develop and a long time to pick up said effects
How are CN ganglia similar to DRG?
- no synapse
- pseudounipolar cells w/ peripheral and central processes
define somites
masses of mesoderm that form skeletal muscles
preotic somites define. include CN too
Preotic somites form muscles that move the eye (+levator palpebrae), not the muscles of the iris or the lens (innervated by CN 3 4 and 6, respectively )
postotic somites define. include CN too
Postotic somites form muscles of the tongue, CN 12
how do you classify muscles that came from somites?
general somatic efferents
how do you classify muscles that have fibers related to visceral structures, SM or cardiac?
general visceral efferents
define branchiomotor
muscles that came from branchial/pharyngeal arch mesenchyme… functionally the same as skeletal
define pharyngeal arch. when do they appear
Masses of mesenchyme tissue that flank the developing gut tube
appear around the 4th-5th week
describe the structure of each arch
outer half covering = ectoderm
inner half covering = endoderm
core region = mesenchyme
suspended within that mesenchyme, laterally we have a nerve, cartilage/bone in the middle, and an artery more medially.
describe the arch numbering
we have six arches present, two go away or merge.
arches 1-4
arch 5 gets overridden
arch 4 and 6 merge together
location of laryngeal orifice
right under the fourth arch
what role do neural crest ells play in the arches?
they migrate into these arches, forming their nerve component
fxn: to contribute to the skeletal components of face
list the four pharyngeal arch derivatives
- muscle (probably from the -mesenchyme)
- bone/cartilage (from the bone/cartilage component of arch)
- skin (from the ectoderm of arch)
- gut tube (from endoderm)
