Lecture 6: pharyngeal Flashcards
start of bilateral pharyngeal apparatus development
4-5 weeks post fertilization
in a cranial to caudal sequence
4 pairs of temporary embryonic structures
- pharyngeal arches
- pharyngeal grooves (clefts)
- pharyngeal pouches
- pharyngeal membranes
pharyngeal arches
5 pairs of arches (5th arch almost never forms)
-mesenchymal core (paraxial mesoderm, neural crest cells, and lateral plate) lined on the outside by ectoderm and endoderm on the inside
pharyngeal grooves (clefts)
external aspect (ectoderm-epidermis)
pharyngeal pouches
4 well defined internal structures formed by outpockting of the endoderm
pharyngeal membranes
two layered structures of ectoderm and endoderm
each pharyngeal arch contains
- cartilagenous skeletal component (neural crest cell derived)
- connective tissue (neural crest cell derived) and muscle component (paraxial mesoderm)
- cranial nerve
- aortic arch artery
intramembranous bone formation
- bone develops in well vascularized mesenchyme
- absence of cartilage model
- develops flat bones of face and skull
intra cartilaginous (endochondral) bone formation
-bone formation in a pre-existing cartilage model (limb bones, weight bearing bones, and some bones of the pharyngeal apparatus)
2 prominence of the 1st pharyngeal arch
maxillary and mandibular
maxillary prominence
- cartilage: palatopterygoquadrate
- cartilage regresses and leaves no adult remnants
mandibular prominence
- large contribution to the face
- cartilage: meckel’s cartilage: leaves some adult structures
meckel’s cartilage gives rise to
-incus
-malleus
by endochondral ossification
perichondrium of meckel’s cartilage forms
- anterior ligament of the malleus
- sphenomandibular ligament
intramembranous in the maxillary prominence forms
- squamous portions of the temporal bone
- maxillary bone
- zygomatic bone
- palatine bone
- from mesenchyme derived from neural crest cells
intramembranous in the mandibular prominence forms
mandible
*from mesenchyme derived from neural crest cells
muscle components of the 1st pharyngeal arch
- 4 muscles of mastication
- tensor veli palatini and tensor tympani
- anterior belly of the digastric
- mylohyoid
nerve components of the 1st pharyngeal arch
- mandibular branch of the trigeminal nerve (CN5) supplies muscles
- sensory to the skin of the face is through the ophthalmic, maxillary, and mandibular branches of the trigeminal nerve (CN5)
2nd pharyngeal arch (hyoid arch) cartilage
reichert’s cartilage
endochondral ossification
reichert’s cartilage gives rise to
- stapes
- styloid process
- stylohyoid ligament
- lesser horn and upper body of the hyoid bone
muscle components of the 2nd pharyngeal arch
- muscles of facial expression
- stapedius
- stylohyoid
- posterior belly of the digastric
nerve components of the 2nd pharyngeal arch
facial nerve (CN 7)
3rd pharyngeal arch gives rise to
lower part of the body and greater horn of the hyoid bone
-endochondral ossification
muscle components of the 3rd pharyngeal arch
stylopharyngeus
