27
PA4/6 cranial nerve

28
where does the epiglottis come from?
neural crest cell derived
29
What is the cartilage for PA2
Reichert's cartilage: dorsal region contributes to stapes and styloid process of the temporal bone, remainder desintegrates; perichondrium -->stylohyoid ligament; ventral end ossifies--> forms lesser cornu/ horn
30
third arch cartilage
ossifies--> forms greater cornu of hyoid bone; body of the hyoid bone is formed by hypopharyngeal eminence - prominence in floor of embryonic pharynx (PA3 and PA4)
31
what type of ossification does the mandible go through?
membranous ossification- does not use a cartilage model that is why meckel's cartilage desintegrates before then.
32
4th arch cartilage
laryngeal cartilages including epiglottis (NCC derived)
33
6th arch cartilage
laryngeal cartilage, but origin is uncertain
34
first arch musculature
muscles of mastication (temporalis, masseter, medial and lateral pterygoids) ; mylohyoid, anterior belly of the digastric, tensor tympani, tensor tympani, tensor veli palatini (originate from head mesoderm)
35
first arch ligaments
anterior ligament of malleus, spheno-mandibular ligament
36
second arch cartilage
stapes, styloid process, lesser horns and part of body of hyoid (derived from the second-arch [Reichert's] cartilage; originate from NCCs) stylohyoid ligament
37
second arch musculature
stapedius and muscles of facial expression (buccinator, auricular muscles, occipitofrontalis, posterior belly of digastric, stylohyoid,
38
third arch musculature
stylopharyngeus m.
39
fourth arch cartilage
thyroid and epiglottal laryngeal cartilages (derived from the 4th arch cartilage; originate from NCCs)
40
sixth arch cartilage
remaining laryngeal cartilages (derived form the 6th arch cartilage; uncertain whether they originate from Neural crest or mesoderm)
41
where do the extraocular muscles arise from?
prechordal plate
42
what is the innervation of the extraoccular muscles
SO(4) LR(6) remainder (3) superior oblique - IV lateral rectus- VI levator palpebrae superioris; superior, medial and inferior recti; inferior oblique - III
43
where does the tongue musculature arise from?
tongue itself is from the pharyngeal arches but the associated musculature comes from the occipital myotomes (superiormost segments of the paraxial mesoderm, different from the unsegmented paraxial mesoderm that populates the rest of the arches, cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and saccrococcygeal myotomes)
44
4th arch musculature
cricothyroid, inferior pharyngeal constrictor
45
6th arch musculature
intrinsic laryngeal muscles (except cricothyroid)
46
first arch syndrome (umbrella term)
malformation of eyes, ears, mandible, and plate, which together constitute 1st arch syndrome results from insufficient migration of NCC into the 1st arch during 4th week
47
which arch is the biggest arch?
first arch
48
treacher-collins syndrome (mandibulofacial dysostosis) - first arch syndrome
malar hypoplasia with down-slanting palpebral fissures, defects of lower eyelids, deformed external ears, and sometimes middle and internal ears autosomal dominant; mutations in Treacher Collins-Franceschetti syndrome 1 gene (TCOF1)
49
what does the protein TCOF1 do?
encodes for the protein TREACLE, involved in ribosome biogenesis (impairs protein synthesis); truncates in TCS leading to increase in apoptosis of cranial NCC
50
pierre robin syndrome
typically de novo; associated with hypoplasia of the mandible, cleft palate and defects of the eyes and ears; initiating defect is a small mandible (micrognathia)--> results in posterior displacement of the tongue--> obstruction of full closure of the palate--> results in bilateral cleft palate
51
grooves are covered with...
ectoderm
52
pouches are covered with...
endoderm
53
1st groove will form the...
external acoustic meatus
54
which grooves lie within the cervical sinus
grooves 2-4
55
what does the 1st pouch turn into?
expands into tympanic recess--> tympanic cavity and mastoid antrum; elongates to form pharyngotympanic tube; endoderm contacts 1st pharyngeal groove --> contributes to tympanic membrane
56
what forms the tympanic membrane?
1st membrane and intervening mesenchyme
57
what does the 2nd pouch give rise to?
portion of tonsillar sinus; endoderm will form tonsillar epithelium; mesenchyme will form lymphoid nodules of palatine tonsil
58
what does the 3rd pouch give rise to?
dorsal portion differentiates into inferior parathyroid gland; ventral portions form the thymus; both migrate caudally due to growth of brain and cardiac regions
59
what does the 4th pouch give rise to?
drosal portion differentiates into superior parathyroid glands; ultimobranchial body --> fuses with thyroid gland and gives rise to parafollicular cells
60
parafollicular cells are... ()dermal in identity
endo-dermal
61
branchial anomalies: external cervical sinus (typical)
failure of 2nd groove and cervical sinus to obliterate- detected due to discharge of mucus; commonly associated with auricular sinuses
62
branchial anomalies: internal cervical sinus (rare)
persistence of 2nd pouch: opens into tonsillar sinus or near palatopharyngeal arch; ingrowth of the pouch, tonsillar tissue should fill in the pouch enough
63
branchial anomalies: cervical cyst
remnants of cervical sinus or 2nd groove; slowly enlarging, painless, free-lying cyst in the neck, inferior to angle of the mandible; accumulation of fluid and cellular debris
64
branchial anomalies: cervical fistula (most extreme)
canal that opens into tonsillar sinus and external side of the neck; persistence of parts of 2nd groove and pouch; ascends through subcutaneous tissue and platysma to reach carotid sheath; passes between carotids and opens into tonsillar sinus - fistula can be site of infection if pathogens pass through
65
what is the first endocrine gland to develop and when?
thyroid gland begins to develop approx. 24 dpf --> thyroid primordium
66
what gives rise to the thyroid gland?
forms from an endodermal thickening in floor of primordial pharynx
67
describe the migration of the thyroid gland
descends in the neck as tongue grows--> ventral to hyoid bone and laryngeal cartilages - held in place temporarily by the duct
68
what connects the thyroid gland and the tongue during development?
thyroglossal duct - will atrophy first then degenerate
69
describe the thyroid gland development from the promodium?
primordium is hollow, but will become solid, cellular mass; divides into R/L lobes connected by the isthmus; definitive shape by 7 weeks and thryroglossal duct will degenerate
70
thyroid gland anomalies: ectopic thyroid tissue
cervical , accessory and/or lingual can form along the course of the duct
71
thyroid gland anomalies: sublingual thyroid gland
forms correctly but does not descend in the neck
72
thyroid gland anomalies: thyroglossal duct cyst
form in tongue or anterior neck- critical to distinguish from ectopic thyroid prior to surgical removal
73
congenital anomalies: agenesis of thyroid gland
abscence of a thyroid gland or one of its lobes
74
congenital anomalies: thyroid hemiagenesis
unilateral failure of formation- left lobe is more commonly absent (mutations in the receptor for thyroid-stimulating hormone are likely involved)
75
congenital anomalies: Digeorge syndrome
breakdown of signaling from PA endoderm to NCC (chromosome deletion 22Q11); agenesis of thymus and parathyroid glands; congenital hypothyroidism; shortened philtrum of upper lip, low set and notched ears; nasal clefts, thyroid hypoplasia; cardiac abnormalities (defects of the aortic arch and heart)
