Angioblasts/Hemangioblasts
The initial precursor cells for the CV system; MESENCHYME cells in the mesoderm
Blood islands
Angioblast aggregation; differentiate into endothelial cells (internal lining of all blood vessels) and Hematopoietic stem cells (blood cell formation)
Heart is derived from?
Splanchnic Mesoderm; Cardiogenic crescent or primary heart field; forms the endothelial plexus--->endocardium (internal lining of the heart); The mesoderm of the crescent--->myocardium
Septum Transversum
Accumulation of mesoderm derived from mesenchyme adjacent to the transverse portion of the U-shaped coelom; Once folding completes, it becomes caudual to the heart; become part of diaphram
Pericardial coelom turns into?
The pericardial cavity d/t folding in the transverse plane; surrounds the heart tube
Initial heart tube
mostly Primitive Left Ventricle and a small portion of the primitive right ventricle; The segments of the primitive tubular heart DO NOT equal the chambers of the mature heart
Secondary Heart Field
Source of cardiac progenitor cells; crescent shaped located dorsal and medial to the primary heart field; FORMS the primitive right ventricle, outflow region and the Sinus venosus
Primary heart field forms
The Primordial Atrium and the Atrioventricular Canal
Cardiac Jelly
Between the myocardium and the endocardium; accum. of ECM; look like primitive valves in the outflow region; Endocardial cushions; bulbar and conotruncal ridges
Epicardium
Over the myocardium; derived from the proepicardial organ; -->Fibrous CT of the visceral pericardium also the formation of the coronary vessels; derivative of the coelomic epithelium that overlies the inflow region
What three connections are responsible for venous inflow of the primitive heart tube
Umbilical Veins (oxygen rich); Vitelline Veins (oxygen poor blood from the gut); and Common Cardinal Veins (oxygen poor blood from the head and trunk)
Outflow connections from the primitive right ventricle
The pharyngeal arch arteries or aortic arches; originate from the aortic sac
The primary heart field express what gene?
Nkx2.5; cardiac master gene; aka tin man gene
The secondary heart field express what gene?
Isl-2 is the master gene; allows for elongation of the primitive heart tube
Ventricular myocyte also forms?
Purkinje Fibers
Cardiac Looping and Early phase
Elongating heart tube begins to bend to the RIGHT; Early phase: proper anatomical relationships between the heart segments are established and inflow/outflow regions are approximated
Outer curvature ballooning
when the atria and ventricle chambers expand
Late phase of looping
Late phase: both limbs of the loop contact each other along the bulboventricular groove (level of AV canal; Inner curvature is the hinge); proximal portion of the outflow region is "wedged" into the AV canal
Changes in blood flow
Initially flow is back and forth; Flow becomes unidirectional by day 26 (with help of SA node); 2 separate streams leave the heart by day 28
Partitioning of the tubular heart into four chambers include
1. cardiac muscle
2. cardiac mesenchyme
3. Extracardiac mesenchyme
4. neural crest
Definitive right atrium forms from?
the Primordial Right atrium and portions of the sinus venosus; The left (proximal) and right umbilical and left vitelline vein atrophy; ALL systemic venous return NOW enters the right side of the heart
The Inferior Vena cava forms from?
The cranial portion of the Right Vitelline Vein
The superior Vena cava forms from?
The proximal portion of the right anterior cardinal vein
The right sinus valve forms?
Crista terminalis, valve of the Inf. vena cava, valve of the coronary sinus
The absorbed right Sinus venosis forms?
the smooth area of right atrium
The left sinus venosus forms?
The coronary sinus
The absorbed pulmonary veins form?
The smooth part of the left atrium; a single pulmonary vein grows out of the left atrium
The tradbeculated part of the auricle is derived from?
The primitive Atrium
What change occurs to the Common AV canal?
It divides into the right and left AV canals; This process separates the atria from the ventricles; REALIGNMENT IS NEEDED with the help of the inner curvature of the heart transforming cushion tissue into cardiac muscle
The Endocardial Cushion Tissue aka Cardiac Mesenchyme forms in what two segments?
The AV canal and the Outflow region
Fusion of the dorsal and ventral endocardial cushions forms?
Septum Intermedium; acts as a guide and glue for positioning and attachmet of the forming septa; The distance between the septum intermedium and the superior edge of the muscular interventricular septum remains constant
Cardiac Mesenchyme forms
Valve leaflets of the mitral, tricuspid, aortic, and pulmonary valves as well as the chordae tendinae and the cardiac skeleton
What are the two parts of the IV septum?
Muscular and Membranous (formed from the cushion tissue of bulbar regions) portions; it is the separation of the ventricles
The primary interventricular foramen never closes; What does it form?
The opening into the aorta (aortic vestibule)
The secondary interventricular Foramen is closed by what?
The membranous portion of the IV septum
Divison of the common atrium
Requires a special septum; two offsetting septa are needed to divide the atrium the two offset (primary atrial septum aka septum primum AND septum secudum); the compression of the septum primum against the septum secudum prevents flow from left to right; form the foramen ovale!!!
The interatrial septa requiremednt
must separate two atria, must allow for right-to-left shunting of blood; It must provide for only one way shunting
The proximal outflow region forms?
Ventricular Outlets (right and left); bulbar ridges contribute; cardiac muscle
The distal outflow region forms?
Pulmonary and aortic valves and pulmonary and aortic root; partitioned by fusion of bulbar ridges; neural crest contribution; cardiac muscle
The aortic sac forms?
Pulmonary (ventral component) and aortic root (dorsal component); The aortic sac is divided by a neural crest derived mesenchyme that forms the aorticopulmonary septum
The cushion tissue in the outflow segments is called
Conotruncal ridges or the bulbar ridges
Formation of the Membranous Interventricular Septum
2 components fuse together; Conotruncal septum (dorsal); Endocardial Cushion (ventral); and then they fust with the muscular interventricular septum
Inlet portion of the right ventricle forms from?
Primitive right ventricle; same for left ventricle
Outlet portion of the right ventricle forms from
Proximal outflow region; same for left ventricle
Fetal Circulation facts
Right heart pressure is greater than the left; blood returns through the placenta through the umbilical arteries; Pulmonary circulation is inactive (high vascular resistance)
Ductus venosus
Oxygen rich blood from the placenta is shunted around liver though the ductus venosus
Oval Foramen
Blood in the IVC is shunted to the left atrium through the Oval Foramen
Ductus Arteriosus
Blood leaving the right ventricle is shunted into the aorta through the Ductus Arteriosus
Pharyngeal Arch 1 vessel development?
contributes to maxillary and ex. carotid arteries
Pharyngeal Arch 2 vessel development?
Stems of the hyoid and stapedial arteries
Pharyngeal Arch 3 vessel development?
Proximal: common carotid arteries; Distal: internal carotid arteries
