    Study Notes

    Pharyngeal Apparatus Development

    • Pharyngeal apparatus development is complex, often involving multiple problems
    • Fish use pharyngeal apparatus for extracting oxygen from water, humans retain this structure
    • Pharyngeal arches develop during the fourth week and give rise to facial and neck structures
    • Four to six pharyngeal arches are present, numbered 1-6 (5 in humans)
    • Arches are supported by paraxial mesoderm and neural crest cells
    • The arches are separated by grooves and clefts
    • The arches derive from pouches (endoderm) and grooves (ectoderm)
    • Arch arteries connect the aortic sac to the dorsal aortae, and will develop into blood vessels
    • The mesenchymal core of the arches gives rise to tissues in the head and neck region
      • Dermis (head and neck)
      • Smooth muscle (neck)
      • Skeletal elements (head)
      • Striated muscle (facial expression and mastication)
    • External ectoderm lining the arches
    • Internal endoderm lining the pouches

    Pharyngeal Arches

    • Arches are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 (5 in humans)
    • Arches are formed from paraxial mesoderm and neural crest cells
    • Arcs contribute to the development of the face and neck
    • Meckel's cartilage forms from the 1st arch and contributes to middle ear bones (malleus and incus)
    • Reichert cartilage forms from the 2nd arch and contributes to stapes, stylohyoid ligament, and part of the hyoid bone
    • The 3rd arch gives rise to the remaining hyoid bone
    • The 4th and 6th arches do not form cartilages but instead develop into cartilages of the larynx
    • Defects in development can lead to cleft palate and/or cleft lip.

    Muscles from Pharyngeal Arches

    • Muscles in the head and neck region develop from the pharyngeal arches
    • The 1st arch contributes to masticatory muscles (temporalis, masseter, etc.) and parts of the digastricus, mylohyoid and tensor veli palatini muscles
    • The 2nd arch forms muscles of facial expression and parts of the digastric, stylohyoid, and stapedius muscles
    • Muscles of the 3rd arch form the stylopharyngeus muscle
    • Muscles of the 4th and 6th arches form laryngeal muscles.
    • Each arch muscle has specific nerve supply

    Pharyngeal Pouches

    • Pouches are endodermal invaginations
    • Pouch 1 forms the tubotympanic recess (eustachian tube) and tympanic membrane
    • Pouch 2 contributes to palatine tonsils (part of the Waldeyer's ring)
    • Pouch 3 forms the thymus and inferior parathyroid glands
    • Pouch 4 forms the superior parathyroid glands and parafollicular cells
    • Pouch development is critical for the formation of the immune system

    Pharyngeal Grooves/Clefts

    • Grooves are ectodermal invaginations
    • Groove 1 forms the external acoustic meatus
    • Groove 1's membrane contributes the tympanic membrane
    • The second and successive pharyngeal arches overlap, and their membranes disappear.

    Development of the Face

    • The face forms from five prominences: central frontonasal, 2 maxillary, and 2 mandibular.
    • The nasal placodes form on the frontonasal prominence
    • The medial nasal process forms the upper lip and intermaxillary segment
    • The maxillary processes form the lateral upper lip
    • The two medial nasal processes fuse to form the primary palate

    Development of the Palate

    • The palate is divided into primary and secondary palates
    • Primary palate forms the anterior hard palate
    • Secondary palate forms the posterior hard and soft palate
    • The palatine shelves fuse to create a complete palate.

    Clefts

    • Clefts can occur if these processes don't fuse properly
    • Cleft palate refers to defects in the palate
    • Cleft lip refers to defects in the upper lip
    • These deformities can be bilateral or unilateral

    Development of the Thyroid Gland

    • The thyroid forms as an outgrowth of the pharyngeal floor (endoderm)
    • The thyroglossal duct connects the developing thyroid to the tongue
    • The duct normally disappears
    • Remnants of the duct can form cysts or ectopic thyroid tissue
    • The thyroid gland secretes hormones responsible for metabolism

    Development of Other Structures

    • Certain abnormalities in the development of the pharyngeal apparatus could result in abnormal positions of the parathyroid, thymus or thyroid glands
    • Structures are formed at specific times in development and from specific germ layers.
