<strong>DEVELOPMENT</strong> <strong>OF</strong> <strong>MESODERM</strong>,<br />

PARAXIAL <strong>MESODERM</strong> AND<br />

SCLEROMYOTOME AND FORMATION <strong>OF</strong> CARTILAGES<br />

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<br />

At the end of lecture students should be able to know,<br />

What is gastrulation.<br />

Development of mesoderm.<br />

Somitogenesis.<br />

Formation of cartilage.<br />

GASTRULATION(<br />

Week 3-8)<br />

• Gastulation is the process<br />

which establishes the<br />

formation of three germ<br />

layered embryo:<br />

– Ectoderm<br />

– Mesoderm<br />

– Endoderm<br />

• Formation of trilaminar<br />

embryonic disc by day 21.<br />

THE THREE GERM LAYERS<br />

The three germ layers are the derivatives of epiblast<br />

The three germ layers give rise to all the tissues and organs of the body.


<strong>DEVELOPMENT</strong> <strong>OF</strong> <strong>MESODERM</strong><br />

Paraxial mesoderm<br />

Intermediate mesoderm<br />

Lateral mesoderm


PARAXIAL <strong>MESODERM</strong><br />

Thick plate of mesoderm located on each side of midline<br />

Becomes organized into segments called somatomeres in cranio-caudal<br />

sequence.<br />

INTERMEDIATE <strong>MESODERM</strong>


Longitudinal dorsal ridge of mesoderm located between paraxial and lateral<br />

mesoderm<br />

This ridge forms the Urogenital ridge<br />

Urogenital ridge forms the future kidneys and gonads<br />

LATERAL <strong>MESODERM</strong><br />

Thin plate of mesoderm located along the lateral side of embryo.<br />

Large spaces develop in the lateral plate mesoderm and coalesce to form<br />

intraembryonic coelom<br />

Intraembryonic coelom divides lateral mesoderm into:<br />

Intraembryonic somatic mesoderm<br />

Intraembryonic visceral mesoderm<br />

SOMITOGENESIS<br />

Process of segmentation development of<br />

axial system vertebrae, muscles and


innervations.<br />

Somites form from paraxial mesoderm in<br />

anterior-posterior gradient, begins at<br />

neurulation.<br />

Two parallel columns of mesodermal cells<br />

form along the longitudinal axis, on each<br />

side of the notochord and neural tube.<br />

Transverse fissures form in the<br />

columns forming somitomeres in cranio caudal direction.<br />

SOMITOMERES


Somitomere 1-7 do not form somites, but contribute mesoderm to<br />

pharyngeal arches<br />

The remaining somitomeres condense in cranio-caudal sequence forming<br />

41-42 pairs of somites.<br />

SOMITES


Somites differentialte into:<br />

Sclerotome<br />

Forms cartilage and bone component of veebral column<br />

Myotome<br />

Forms epimeric and hypomeric muscles<br />

Dermatome<br />

Forms dermis and subcutaneous area of skin<br />

SUMMARY <strong>OF</strong> <strong>MESODERM</strong>AL <strong>DEVELOPMENT</strong><br />

FORMATION <strong>OF</strong> CARTILAGE<br />

Cartilage is derived from mesenchyme<br />

Avascular mesenchyme contains stem cells embedded in a delicate collagen<br />

matrix


CHONDROBLAST<br />

Mesenchyme cells begin to differentiate into protochondral cells<br />

Protochondral cells divide to produce chondroblasts<br />

CARTILAGE <strong>DEVELOPMENT</strong>


The center fills with chondroblasts as the top and bottom edges continue to<br />

differentiate.<br />

Stem cells remain on the edges<br />

Chondroblasts remain in the center and produce cartilage matrix.<br />

Stem cells at the edges produce fibroblasts and make the fibrous<br />

perichondrium<br />

Chondroblasts in the center continue to divide
