Development of nervous system Assist Prof. Naziha Sultan Ahmed The dura mater and arachnoid (layers ofmeninges) , still extend to the middle of the sacral canal. The spinal meninges contain a pool of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) which can be tapped for diagnostic purposes. In the adult the spinal cord usually extends to the level of the first lumbar vertebra , Hence , when one is performing spinal lumbar punctures to obtain CSF , the needle usually inserted between the vertebral arches of third and fourth lumbar vertebrae to avoid damage to the spinal cord. The spinal cord has two enlargments : 1-Cervical enlargement ,from which brachial plexus arises. 2-Lumbosacral enlargement , from which the lumbosacral plexus arises. Derivatives of the layers of neural tube : =The ependymal layer cells giverise to neuroblasts and glioblasts , dorsal median septum , ventral median fissure and central canal . =The mantle layer cells giverise to dorsal gray horn , ventral gray horn , dorsal gray commissure , ventral gray commissure. =The marginal layer cells giverise to dorsal funiculus (found between septum and root) and lateral funiculus(found between the two roots). Development of the brain: Before the neural tube forms , the neural plate is expanded rostrally where the brain will develop . As the neural tube forms and rostral neuropore closes , the thickened neural folds rise to form three primary brain vesicles ; forebrain (prosencephalon) vesicle , midbrain (mesencephalon) , hindbrain (rhombencephalon). ve 2-Midbrain vesicle (Mesencephalon) Midbrain 3-Hindbrain vesicle Metencephalon Pons , cerebellum & vermis (Rhombencephalon) Myelencephalon Medulla oblongata The development of the head fold in 4th week produces a cervical flexure in the neural tube near the junction of the hindbrain and future spinal cord . As the brain vesicle enlarge , two other flexures form ; midbrain flexure (flexure) which convex dorsally in the region , and the pontine flexure which is convex ventrally in the hindbrain region . .

The brain vesicle grows and gives 3 dilatations named as: • Prosencephalon • Mesencephalon • Rhombencephalon Telencephalon cerebral hemispheres Forebrain prosencephalon Diencephalon Thalami Midbrain mesencephalon Mesencephalon Midbrain Metencephalon Pones & cerebellum Hindbrain rhombencephalon Myelencephalon Medulla By the end of 4th week the 3 primary vesicles develop (3 vesicles stage) By the 5th week 5 secondary vesicles develop (5 vesicles stage) By 4th week: By the 4th week: The neural tube grows rapidly and bends ventrally with the head fold, producing two flexures: Midbrain (cephalic) flexure: In the region of midbrain. Cervical flexure: between the hind brain & the spinal cord. Later Pontine flexure appears in the hindbrain, in the opposite direction of the cephalic & cervical flexures, resulting in stretching and thinning of the roof of the hindbrain.

Read Full License Page 1/21 Abstract Background: S-adenosylmethionine as a major methyl donor play a key role in methylation modication in vivo, and its disorder was closely related to neural tube defects. However, the underlying mechanism between SAM deciency and NTDs remained unclear. Methods: we investigated the association between histone methylation modication and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in NTDs induced by SAM deciency. The levels of SAM and SAH were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The expressions of H3K27me3 and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway specic markers were demonstrated by western blotting, reverse transcription, and quantitative PCR and immunouorescence in ethionine induced E11.5 mouse NTDs and NSCs models. Results: we found that the incidence rate of NTDs induced by ethionine were 46.2%, post treatment of ethionine combined with SAM, the incidence rate of NTDs was reduced to 26.2%.

Pax2/5 and Pax6 Subdivide the Early Neural Tube Into Three Domains

We demonstrate that, in Pax2/5 deficient mice, the mesencephalon/metencephalon primordium is completely missing, resulting in a fusion of the forebrain to the hindbrain. Morphologically, in the alar plate the deletion is characterized by the substitution of the tectum (dorsal midbrain) and cerebellum (dorsal metencephalon) by the caudal diencephalon and in the basal plate by the replacement of the midbrain tegmentum by the ventral metencephalon (pons). Molecularly, the loss of the tectum is demonstrated by an expanded expression of Pax6, (the molecular determinant of posterior commissure), and a rostral shift of the territory of expression of Gbx2 and Otp (markers for the pons), towards the caudal diencephalon. Our results suggest that an intact territory of expression of Pax2/5 in the neural plate, nested between the rostral and caudal territories of expression of Pax6, is necessary for defining the midbrain vesicle. 1999 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.

An environmental stimulus causes a response in an organism when specialized structures, receptors, are excited. Excitations are conducted by nerves to effectors which act to adapt the organism to the changed conditions of the environment. In animals, humoral correlation is controlled by the activities of the endocrine system. This article considers the morphology, histology, and embryology of the nervous system, including the brain and cranial nerves, and embryology of the sense organs. The brain of all vertebrates, including humans, consists of three basic divisions: prosencephalon, mesencephalon, and rhombencephalon (Fig.

The CNS Connectome of a Tadpole Larva of Ciona Intestinalis
RESEARCH ARTICLE The CNS connectome of a tadpole larva of Ciona intestinalis (L.) highlights sidedness in the brain of a chordate sibling Kerrianne Ryan1,2, Zhiyuan Lu1,2, Ian A Meinertzhagen1,2* 1Department of Biology, Life Sciences Centre, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Canada; 2Department of Psychology and Neuroscience, Life Sciences Centre, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Canada Abstract Left-right asymmetries in brains are usually minor or cryptic. We report brain asymmetries in the tiny, dorsal tubular nervous system of the ascidian tadpole larva, Ciona intestinalis. Chordate in body plan and development, the larva provides an outstanding example of brain asymmetry. Although early neural development is well studied, detailed cellular organization of the swimming larva’s CNS remains unreported. Using serial-section EM we document the synaptic connectome of the larva’s 177 CNS neurons. These formed 6618 synapses including 1772 neuromuscular junctions, augmented by 1206 gap junctions. Neurons are unipolar with at most a single dendrite, and few synapses. Some synapses are unpolarised, others form reciprocal or serial motifs; 922 were polyadic. Axo-axonal synapses predominate. Most neurons have ciliary organelles, and many features lack structural specialization. Despite equal cell numbers on both sides, neuron identities and pathways differ left/right. Brain vesicle asymmetries include a right ocellus and left coronet cells. DOI: 10.7554/eLife.16962.001 *For correspondence: [email protected] Competing interests: The authors declare that no

Peripheral nervous system (PNS) includes nerves and ganglia, which are distributed throughout the body. o Bundles of axons are in nerves. o Nerves connect to the brain (cranial nerves) or spinal cord (spinal nerves). o Ganglia are collections of the somas of neurons. 6 During gastrulation, cells migrate to form a three layered embryo. 7 Factors from the midline mesoderm induce nervous system in the overlying ectoderm, and the neural plate forms. 8 The neural tube develops from the neural plate in a process called neurulation. 9 Neural tube gives rise to three primary brain vesicles and spinal cord. 10 Additional changes form the five secondary brain vesicles. 11 Each major adult brain region develops from a brain vesicle.
