  1. NEURULATION AND CRANIO-FACIAL DEVELOPMENT LEARNING OUTCOMES 1. Describe the induction of the neural plate by the notochord and the progressive formation of the neural tube 2. Explain the origin of the neural crest cells, their migration and eventual destinations 3. Show the segmental pattern of nerve development in the spinal cord and the relationship between nerve, and muscle derived from the myotome 4. Outline the segmentation of the brain 5. Describe the congenital malformation of the nervous system, e.g. spinal bifida, cerebellar hypoplasia and hydrocephalus. 6. Outline the development of the nasal passage and the mouth 7. Understand the development of the ear and the eye

  2. Represents paracrine signals Neural tube closure begins near the rostral end of the embryo and progresses caudally The notochord induces the overlying neuroectoderm cell layer to invaginate to form the neural tube

  3. Neural tube formed with overlying ectoderm and underlying notochord Neuro-epithelial layer already showing signs of elongation of cells (notochord not present) Neural groove forming

  4. The neural fold closes from a starting cervical location in both a rostral and caudal direction Anterior neuropore Heart Non-fused neural folds Foregut Mouse 9 days Hindgut caudal neuropore DORSAL VIEW VENTRAL VIEW Mouse 8 days http://www.med.unc.edu/embryo_images/ Mouse 9 days

  5. Neural crest cells escape the neuroectoderm epithelium and migrate to diverse destinations Neural crest cells leaving dorsal ectoderm (Gilbert) (Epithelial to mesenchyme transition)

  6. Neural Crest Cell Induction FoxD3, Slug Wnt6, ectoderm BMPs Ectoderm Neural crest precursors Neural tube

  7. Neural crest migration • Slug activates factors inducing the dissociation of tight junctions • Migrating cells follow cues from the extracellular matrix • One set of proteins (fibronectin, laminin) promote migration while ephrin impedes • migration (remember lectures on cell adhesion and control of cell division)

  8. PIG - TERM Sensory neurone Inter- neurone Dermis Muscle A segmental reflex arc The spinal cord develops a segmentation pattern which reflects the pattern of somites. SEGMENTATION IN THE SPINAL CORD AND PERIPHERAL NERVES PIG - 38 DAYS Dorsal root ganglion Dorsal horn Ventral horn Motor efferent

  9. Dorsal-ventral axis in the Neural Tube TGFb family in ectoderm TGFb family in roof plate Gradient of TGFb family Interneurones Gradient of shh Motor neurones shh shh in floor plate shh in notochord 1. The notochord produces Sonic hedgehog (Shh) and induces the ventral neural tube to become floor plate and produce Shh 2. The ectodermal cells produce members of the Transforming growth factor (TGF-b) family and induce the dorsal neural tube to become roof plate and to start to produce the same proteins 3. Two gradients are created of TGF-b and Shh 4. Different concentrations of these proteins activate the expression of different sets of genes so that cells differentiate to become inter-neurones and motor neurones

  10. The head also shows a rostral/caudal segmentation pattern but this is less regular and more complex than that of the trunk somites

  12. Arch 1: maxillary Arch 1: mandibular Arch 1: maxillary Arch 2 Arch 3 Arch 1: mandibular Arch 2 The branchial arches are bilateral pouches of tissue separated by branchial clefts in the region of the pharynx Mouse, 10 days, lateral view Human, 30 days, ventro-lateral view http://www.med.unc.edu/embryo_images/

  13. Mid-brain and vesicle Oral cavity Torn edge of oral plate Floor of pharynx 1 Branchial arch Branchial cleft 2 3 Pharyngeal pouch The branchial arches are separated internally by pharyngeal pouches and externally by branchial clefts MIDLINE Laryngo- Tracheal groove AORTIC ARCH Mouse, 9 days, section, from dorsal view http://www.med.unc.edu/embryo_images/

  14. The branchial arches and clefts and the juxtaposed pharyngeal pouches are a recapitulation of the respiratory anatomy of fish

  15. There are 12 cranial nerves corresponding to the 7 somitomeres and 5 rostral somites of the head region

  18. Cranial neural crest cells give rise to structural components normally associated with the paraxial mesoderm in the trunk SEGMENTATION IN THE HEAD CRANIAL NEURAL CREST CELLS 1. SENSORY AND AUTONOMIC NERVE GANGLIA DERIVATIVES IN COMMON WITH 2. SCHWANN CELLS OF PERIPHERAL TRUNK NEURAL CREST NERVES 3. MELANOCYTES 1.BONE, DERMIS OF FACE 2. MENINGES OF BRAIN 3. CORNEA OF EYE UNIQUE DERIVATIVES 4. DENTAL PAPILLAE 5. CONNECTIVE TISSUE COMPONENTS OF BRANCHIAL ARCHES

  19. Arrows indicate the origin and destinations of neural crest cell populations. In the facial region, neural crest cells contribute all of the skeletal and connective tissues with the exception of tooth enamel http://www.med.unc.edu/embryo_images/

  20. 2. Muscle contribution is from somitomeres (for example somitomere 4 gives rise to muscles of mastication) 3. Maxillary arch extends inwards to fuse with its bilateral partner and the nasal structures. It forms the bone of the upper jaw and the tissues of the upper lip 4. Mandibular arches fuse to form lower jaw 5. Failure of fusion of maxillary arches and nasal prominences gives rise to cleft lip and palate The branchial arches contribute to features of the face with their tissue components deriving from both neural crest and myotome FEATURES OF THE FACE AND THEIR ORIGINS - 1 1. Unusually, supporting tissue components of branchial arches and face derive from neural crest EYE NASAL PIT MAXILLARY DEVELOPMENT (from arch 1) STOMODEUM (mouth) TONGUE MANDIBULAR ARCH(arch 1) (mastication) HYOID ARCH (II) (facial expression)

  21. NASAL CAVITY SECONDARY PALATE ORAL CAVITY TONGUE TRACHEA OESOPHAGUS The epithelium of the oral cavity derives from both ectodermal and endodermal sources FEATURES OF THE FACE AND THEIR ORIGINS - 2 NASAL PIT MANDIBULAR ARCH LUNG BUD 1. Lateral walls of nasal cavity contain olfactory epithelium 2. the rest of nasal cavity is pseudostratified ciliated epithelium derived from the original ectoderm 3. The oral cavity develops partly from ectoderm and partly from endoderm. The fusion point between the two was the position of the (now degraded) oral plate

  22. VIII II The otic placode is induced ectoderm which invaginates to become the cavity of the inner ear THE OTIC SENSORY PLACODES - 1 1. The otic placode invaginates to form the otic vesicle which will become the inner ear 2.

The middle and outer ear evolved to receive and transmit sound waves

  24. (A) 9 day mouse (B) 9 day mouse The otic placode invaginates to form anotic pitand finally the otic vesicle. Its surface aspect is dorsal to the 2nd branchial cleft 10 day mouse The neural tube in the region of the hindbrain induces formation of the otic placode (A) and then otic vesicle (B), dorsolateral to the pharynx http://www.med.unc.edu/embryo_images/
