CNS Dev't Flashcards
(114 cards)
neurulation occurs until
Day 28
entire process of neural fold formation, elevation, and closure
neurulation
appearance of notocord and precordial mesoderm induces overlying ectoderm to thicken forming
neural plate
How is neural fold formed
lateral edges of the neural plate begins to elevate
depressed region in the midline of neural plate
Neural grove
neural folds fused midline
neural tube
neural tube opens posteriorly and anteriorly called
neuropores
closes by day 25
anterior (cranial) neuropore
closes by day 28
posterior (caudal) neuropore
Complete neurulation
closure of posterior neuropore
CNS with T-shaped form is having an
Elongated caudal end
Broader cranial end
3 vesical stage
Prosencephalon
Mesencephalon
Rhombencephalon
Flexures present during 27 days
Cephalic
Cervical
5 Vesical stage
prosencephalon : Telencephalon (lateral ventricle, cerebral hemisphere) & Diencephalon (3rd ventricle and thalamus, hypothalamus)
Mesencephalon: Aqueduct of Sylvius (tectum, crus cerebri)
Rhombencephalon :Metenceohalon ( upper 4th vent, pons& cerebellum) Mesencephalon (lower 4th vent, medulla)
separates Mesencephalon and Rhombencephalon
Rhombocephalic isthmus
Junction of the hindbrain and SC ; disappears at 4th month
Cervical Flexure
Flexure at midbrain region; disappears at 3 vesical stage
Cephalic flexure
between Metencephalon and Myelencephalon
Pontine Flexure
Cavity of cerebral hemispheres
lateral ventricles
Communicates the lateral ventricle with 3rd ventricle
Interventricular foramina of. monroe
cavity of diencephalon
third ventricles
lumen of mesencephalon ;connects 3rd and 4th ventricles
aqueduct of sylvius
Cavity of rhombencephalon
4th ventricle
lumen of Sc
central canal
