Urogenital development Flashcards

1
Q

mesonephros

A

Urinary bladder portion:

urine formation takes place here until week 9

gives rise to:

  • excretory tubules that form urine
  • mesophrenic ducts that conduct urine to the cloaca where it is excreted into amniotic cavity

Q

metanephros

A

acts as definitive kidney around week 10

  1. utretic bud: outgrowth of mesonephric duct
    - forms urine CONDUCTING structures: collecting ducts/calyces/renal pelvis/ureter
  2. Metanephric BlastemaL formed from themesenchyme of intermediate mesoderm
    - forms urine FORMING structures: nephron tubules

Development (reciprocal induction of eachother)

  • RA from Int Mes drives kidney location
  • WT1 from Met Blas drives utretic bud dev
  • FGF2/BMP7 from utretic bud drives met blas dev
  • Wnt6/Wnt9b from utretic bud drives met blas tubule epithelialization

Q

Clinical correlation of kidney development

A

underinduction

  • renal hypoplasia:
  • renal agenesis:urine not working, not contributing to amniotic fluid
  • oligohydramnios sequence

overinduction:
- bifid ureter: two come off then come together
- ureter duplication:two complete ureters
- fused kidney/ horseshoe: asymptomatic, may constrict SMA

Q

Clinical Correlation of Kidney Ascent

A

Kidneys formed (metanephros) in the pelvic region

  • caudal growth of body makes them appear to ascend
  • vascualture formed as body grows and older vasculature deteriorates
  1. Occasionally they do not deteriorate and you have ACCESSORY RENAL ARTERIES
  2. Ectopic Kidney or Ureter: abnormal location- still in the pelvis
    - can be asymptomatic
    - typically to bladder, can go to urethra, vestibule, vagina

Q

Clinical correlations of Urinary Bladder development

A

Normally in weeks 5-10 the urorectal septum divides the cloaca into

  1. urogenital sinus: gives rise to urinary bladder and urethra (both the only ENDODERM)
    - urogenital sinus goes up into the alantois
    - allantois evenually becomes urachus and shouldbecome medial umbilical ligament
    - mesonephric duct incorporated into bladder wall forming trigone (endoderm ep overgrows the trigone-this is NOT from UG sinus, from mesonephric duct )
  2. anorectal canal

CC:
Urachal Fistula, cyst, or sinus

Extrophy of bladder: failure of abdominal wall to close, exposed urinary bladder mucosa

Abdominal Muscle Deficiency Syndrome: Prune Belly, congenital absence of abdominal muscles, intestines and urinary bladder visible

overgrown by enderderm epithelium

NOT FROM UG SINUS

Q

genital ridge from what and gives rise to what, and regulation

A

formed from mesonephros

gives rise two two structures

Gential Ridge CT
-intersititial cells cells (M) and theca calls (F)
Gential RIdge Epithelium
-sustentacular cells (M) and granulosa cells (F)
-both supporting cells

** germ cells NOT from interm meso, from epiblast then micrate to yolk sac

regulated by SRY gene. if SRY gene is blocked, we become male.

Q

Male genital duct

A

genital ridge froms seminiferous tubules and rete testes

the execretory tube becomes efferect ductys

the mesonephric duct becomes epididymis DD and SV and ED

Q

Female genital duct derivation

A

genital ridge becomes ovaries

paramesonephric duct becomes uterine tubes, uterus and proximal 1.3 of vagina

uterus formed as two paramesonephric ducts fuse

  • distal 2.3 vafine formed from urogenital sinus, epithelial endoderm lining
  • vagina initially solid, becomes canalized (except hymen)
