The process involves migration of cells forming the primitive streak/embryonic disc (epiblast & hypoblast) through a process epithelial to mesenchymal transition. The results of the migration of cells is the formation of primitive germ layers – Endoderm, Mesoderm and Ectoderm Gastrulation INTRODUCTION • The primitive gut forms during the 4th week of the development as a result of cephalocaudal and lateral folding of the embryo. • This endoderm lined cavity is incorporated into the embryo, while the yolk sac and the allantois remain temporarily outside the embryo. • The endoderm of the primitive gut gives rise to the epithelium and glands of the digestive tract. • The muscular and fibrous elements of the digestive tract are derived from the splanchnic mesoderm. • The epithelium at the cranial and caudal extremities of the digestive tract is derived from the ectoderm of the stomodeum and the proctodeum (anal pit).

Neural tube DEVELOPMENT OF THE PRIMITIVE GUT • The primitive gut is divided into four parts: – a) the pharyngeal gut which extends from the buccopharyngeal (oropharyngeal) membrane to the respiratory (tracheobronchial) diverticulum – b) the foregut, extending from the tracheobronchial diverticulum to the liver outgrowth – c) the midgut, extending from the liver outgrowth to the junction of the right two thirds and left one third of the transverse colon in the adult (posterior intestinal porta) – d) the hindgut, extending from the posterior intestinal porta to the cloacal membrane • The liver, biliary apparatus, pancreas and the respiratory system arise as diverticula from the foregut. • Along the entire length, the intestinal tube is suspended from the dorsal body wall by a dorsal mesentery. • Along the segment of its length, it is attached to the ventral body wall by a ventral mesentery. 1.Foregut 2.

Pancreas 15. Vitelline duct 16. Allantois FOREGUT • The derivatives of the foregut are the lower respiratory system, esophagus, stomach, duodenum proximal to the biliary tract, liver, pancreas, biliary tract and gallblader. OESOPHAGUS • In the 4th developmental week, a small diverticulum appears at the ventral wall of the foregut - the respiratory (tracheobronchial) diverticulum. • It becomes gradually separated from the foregut by the esophagotracheal septum. • Initially very short esophagus lengthens rapidly. The proliferation of esophageal epithelium almost obliterates the lumen, but the recanalization of the esophagus occurs by the end of the 8th week. Formation of the esophagus 1.

Lung buds STOMACH • The stomach appears as a fusiform dilation of the foregut in the 4th week of development. • The dorsal border grows faster than the ventral border, thus producing the greater curvature. • The stomach rotates along the longitudinal and antero- posterior axis. • The rotation of the stomach along the longitudinal axis causes its left side to face anteriorly, and its right side posteriorly. • The stomach is attached to the dorsal and ventral body wall by the dorsal and ventral mesogatrium. • During rotation, the dorsal mesogastrium is pulled to the left, forming the omental bursa. 1. Liver 2. Stomach 3. Spleen 4. Pancreas 5. Adrenal gland 6. Aorta 7. Dorsal mesogastrium 8. Omental bursa 9. Falciform ligament 10. Lesser omentum Stomach and dorsal mesentery • The dorsal mesogastrium extends tremendously as a double-layered flap of the mesentery, the greater omentum, which lies over the intestine. • As the spleen forms in the dorsal mesogastrium, the lienorenal and gastrolienal ligaments develop as remnants or dorsal mesogastrium. • The ventral mesogastrium attaches the lower esophagus, stomach and proximal duodenum to the ventral body wall. • Growth of the liver causes the formation of the lesser omentum and falciform ligament in the ventral mesogastrium. 1.

Parietal peritoneum SPLEEN • The spleen is a lymphatic organ which appears during the 5th developmental week as a focus of mesenchymal proliferation between the layers of the dorsal mesogastrium. • As the stomach rotates, the left part of the dorsal mesogastrium comprises the gastrolineal and lienorenal ligaments. • The mesenchymal cells differentiate into the parenchymal cells, connective tissue and the surface capsule. • The spleen functions as a hematopoietic center until late fetal life. 1.

Parietal peritoneum DUODENUM • The duodenum develops from the caudal portion of the foregut and cranial portion of the midgut. • The entrance of the bile duct into the duodenum lies just proximal to their junction. • The loop of the duodenum rotates to the right and comes to lie retroperitoneally. • The duodenal epithelium grows rapidly and temporarily obliterates the lumen of the gut tube. 1.

Adrenal gland LIVER AND BILIARY APPARATUS • The liver, gallbladder and the biliary duct system arise as a bud of the endodermal epithelium at the distal end of the foregut. • The hepatic diverticulum (liver bud) grows into the septum transversum. • Septum transversum is the mesodermal plate between the pericardial cavity and the stalk of the yolk sac. • Cranial part of the septum transversum forms the tendinous portion of diaphragm, while its caudal part contributes to the ventral mesogastrium. • The large part of the liver bud forms the parenchyme of the liver and billiary apparatus. • The fibrous, hemopoietic tissue and Kupffer cells derive from the mesenchyme of the septum transversum. • A small caudal portion of the liver bud expands to form gallbladder and bile duct. 1.

The three divisions of the cockroach digestive tract are the foregut, midgut, and the hindgut. The enzyme reaction in the digestive tract can be determined either by determining the amount of substrates (starch and proteins) in an enzyme-reaction mixture, or measuring the presence of product present.

  • MINIREVIEW Posterior Gut Development in Drosophila: a Model System for Identifying Genes Controlling Epithelial Morphogen- Esis
    Cell Research (1998), 8, 273-284 MINIREVIEW Posterior gut development in Drosophila: a model system for identifying genes controlling epithelial morphogen- esis LENGYEL JUDITH A* , XUE JUN LIU Department of Molecular, Cell and Developmental Biology University of California at Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA USA, 90095-1606 USA ABSTRACT The posterior gut of the Drosophila embryo, consist- ing of hindgut and Malpighian tubules, provides a simple, well-defined system where it is possible to use a genetic approach to define components essential for epithelial mor- phogenesis. We review here the advantages of Drosophila as a model genetic organism, the morphogenesis of the ep- ithelial structures of the posterior gut, and what is known about the genetic requirements to form these structures. In overview, primordia are patterned by expression of hi- erarchies of transcription factors; this leads to localized expression of cell signaling molecules, and finally, to the least understood step: modulation of cell adhesion and cell shape. We describe approaches to identify additional genes that are required for morphogenesis of these simple epithelia, particularly those that might play a structural role by affecting cell adhesion and cell shape. Key words: Organogenesis, cell rearrangement, con- vergent extension, hindgut, Malpighian tubule. Advantages of Drosophila Work on Drosophila genetics began 90 years ago, when Thomas Hunt Morgan * Corresponding author: [email protected] Drosophila gut epithelial morphogenesis genes (who later received the Nobel Prize for his work) began studying inheritance in the fruit fly. At that time, the advantage of working with this small organism was that it reproduced rapidly in the laboratory, requiring only a simple growth medium, no special attention, and little expense.

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease with many debilitating complications. Treatment of diabetes mellitus mainly revolves around conventional oral hypoglycaemic agents and insulin replacement therapy. Recently, scientists have turned their attention to the generation of insulin-producing cells (IPCs) from stem cells of various sources. To date, many types of stem cells of human and animal origins have been successfully turned into IPCs in vitro and have been shown to exert glucose-lowering effect in vivo. However, scientists are still faced with the challenge of producing a sufficient number of IPCs that can in turn produce sufficient insulin for clinical use. A careful choice of stem cells, methods, and extrinsic factors for induction may all be contributing factors to successful production of functional beta-islet like IPCs. It is also important that the mechanism of differentiation and mechanism by which IPCs correct hyperglycaemia are carefully studied before they are used in human subjects.

    Duodenum -The duodenum develops from the caudal part of the foregut and cranial part of the midgut . So, it is supplied by branches from both celiac and cranial mesenteric arteries. -Due to rotation of the stomach, the duodenum rotates to be located in the right side. Anomalies of duodenum: 1-Duodenal stenosis:- Narrowing of the duodenal lumen results from:- a-Incomplete recanalization of duodenum b-It may be caused by pressure from an annular pancreas. 2-Duodenal atresia:- -A short segment of duodenum is occluded due to failure of recanalization of this segment. -In fetus with duodenal atresia , vomiting begins within few hours of birth before ingestion of any fluid -Often there is distension of epigastrium resulting from overfilled stomach and upper duodenum. Liver -The liver appears as a hepatic bud from the ventral aspect of (duodenum) distal end of the foregut. -The hepatic bud is divided into two cranial and caudal. -The cranial part gives liver and hepatic duct while caudal part gives gall bladder and cystic duct. -The hepatic bud directed towards the septum transversum. - The hepatic bud differentiate into hepatic cords which invade the umbilical and vitelline veins of the septum transversum and transforms them into hepatic sinusoids. - The hepatic cords differentiate into the parenchyma and the lining of the bile duct. - The hemopiotic cells , capsule and connective tissue supporting the liver are differentiated from the mesoderm of the septum transversum.

  • GI Embryology 2 the Foregut
    GI embryology 2 The Foregut • At first the esophagus is short • but with descent of the heart and lungs it lengthens rapidly • The muscular coat, which is formed by surrounding splanchnic mesenchyme, is striated in its upper two-thirds and innervated by the vagus; • the muscle coat is smooth in the lower third and is innervated by the splanchnic plexus. Esophageal Abnormalities • Esophageal atresia and/or tracheoesophageal fistula results either from spontaneous posterior deviation of the tracheoesophageal septum or from some mechanical factor pushing the dorsal wall of the foregut anteriorly • In its most common form the proximal part of the esophagus ends as a blind sac, and the distal part is connected to the trachea by a narrow canal just above the bifurcation • Other types of defects in this region occur much less frequently • Atresia of the esophagus prevents normal passage of amniotic fluid into the intestinal tract, resulting in accumulation of excess fluid in the amniotic sac (polyhydramnios). • In addition to atresias, the lumen of the esophagus may narrow, producing esophageal stenosis, usually in the lower third • Stenosis may be caused by incomplete recanalization, vascular abnormalities, or accidents that compromise blood flow • Occasionally the esophagus fails to lengthen sufficiently and the stomach is pulled up into the esophageal hiatus through the diaphragm. • The result is a congenital hiatal hernia Development of the glands • Most glands are formed during development by proliferation of epithelial cells so that they project into the underlying connective tissue • Some glands retain their continuity with the surface via a duct and are known as EXOCRINE GLANDS, as they maintain contact with the surface • Other glands lose this direct continuity with the surface when their ducts degenerate during development.
