First week:

fertilization and implantation

Second to eight weeks

morphogenesis maturation differentiation induction

Blastocyst

forms during the first week

Bilaminar disc & gastrulation

disc forms in second week; Gastrulation starts in third week

Trilaminar disc

lateral body folding, head and tail folding; exists during the third week

LMP

clinical terminology for timeline; fertilization occurs on day 15 of menstrual cycle or day 1 of gestation

When nuclei of egg and sperm unite:

DNA is replicated; nuclear membranes dissolve




Series of divisions = stem cells, 8 cell stage --> morula by day three

Morula

formed on Day 3; compaction - the process where the outer cells develop tight junctions and form a seal that separates the inner cells from the outside world




Formation of sodium potassium pumps moves fluid into the center of the morula. Blastocoele is formed

Blastocyst

Day 5; or 19 days LMP; trophoblast cells and inner mass cells form; inner mass cells will go on to form the embryo; as it enlarges it moves down to the uterus because it's too large for zone pellucida

Week 2: early development

Amniotic sac is formed; bilaminar disc is formed; the cavity becomes called the primary yolk sac; layer of cells surrounding the yolk sac is the exocoelomic membrane




Bilaminar disc made up of epiblast layer and hypoblast layer (slide 19)




lacunae appear in extra embryonic mesoderm; lacunae connect to form the extra embryonic coulomb (which becomes chorionic cavity) and the connecting stalk is formed (attached to placenta)

Around day 10:
the cytotrophoblast and the exocoelomic membrane expands and it becomes the extra embryonic mesoderm (slide 22)

Week 3:

Bilaminar disc becomes the trilaminar disc;

Gastrulation

epiblast gives rise to ectoderm mesoderm and endoderm (trilaminar disc)

Paraxial mesoderm

will become somites

Intermediate mesoderm

Lateral plate mesoderm

will become lateral plate splanchnic mesoderm and lateral plate somatic mesoderm

Neurulation

begins with notochord cells migrating around the primitive node; formation of oral plate and neural tube

Lateral body folding

endoderm forms the gut tube; lateral plate splits into somatic and splanchnic mesoderm - body cavity forms in between the two

Head and Tail Folding

Cephalic end of the embryo grows the fastest and the brain moves into a cephalic position and the oral plate moves ventrally and caudally; foregut and hindgut are formed

Blood islands

form in the lateral mesoderm and continue into the oral plate
