  1. Development of the heart Mark Kozsurek, M.D., Ph.D. mark@kozsurek.hu ED I., 20/02/2018

  2. Development of theheartincludes: • formation of thehearttube, • twisting and furtherdifferentiation of thehearttube, • partitioning of theheart – completeisolationoftheleft and right halves, • formation of thevalves.

  3. I. Early development of the heart: appearance of the heart tube

  5. Note that heart starts to develop anterior to the brain! brain spinal cord

  6. Heart primordium appears on the 18th-19th days (the end of the third week). At this stage the embryo is a flat, trilaminar disc and the differentiation of the three germ layers has just begun. Heart develops from the cardiogenic area, a part of the intraembryonic mesoderm anterior to the oropharyngeal membrane and posterior to the septum transversum.

  8. angioblastic cords somatic layer somatic layer splanchnic layer splanchnic layer splanchnic layer A group of cells leaves the splanchnic mesoderm, moves medially and forms the angioblastic cords.

  9. myoepicardial mantle somatic layer splanchnic layer endocardial tubes On the dorsal side of the endocardial tube, the splanchnic mesoderm thickens and forms the myoepicardial mantles.

  10. Further development of the heart is mainly determined by the folding of the embryo (4th week). The folding includes: 1) „flexion” around transverse axes – this will explain, how the heart primordium moves from „above the head” into the chest occupying its final position. 2) „rolling” around the longitudinal axis – this will mainly explain the fusion of the structures originally developing on the two sides of the embryo.

  13. Folding of the embryo, especially the „rolling”, results in the fusion of the two endocardial tubes in the midline. Somewhat later the myoepicardial mantles also unite and surround the endocardial tube. The intraembryonic celoms fuse ventrally, and finally, the dorsal mesocardium disappears.

  14. The heart tube, branching both rostrally and caudally, is surrounded by the pericardial cavity.

  16. II. Twisting and furtherdifferentiation of thehearttube

  17. As the two ends of the heart tube are fixed, its intense longitudinal growth necessarily results in the formation of several loops and curvatures. Furthermore some parts of the tube remain narrower, while others dilate. The venous end moves backward and ascends and gets behind the slightly descending arterious end. cardiogenic plate endocardial tubes and their fusion 6 5 4 3 1-2 6 6 • sinus venosus • commonatrium • atrioventricularcanal • commonventricle • bulbuscordis • truncusarteriosus 4 5 4 3 5 RV 3 2 LV 2 1 1 Common ventricle gives the later LV and the inflow part of the RV, while the bulbus cordis differentiates into the outflow part of the RV!

  37. Summary • The septation of the common atrium starts with the appearance of the crescent-shaped septum primum. The opening of this septum, the foramen primum, becomes progressively smaller. • Before the foramen primum completly closes, postero-superiorly several small openings appear on the septum primum. These perforations coalesce later and form the foramen secundum. • On the right side of the septum primum a new septum, the septum secundum, starts to grow. The orifice of the septum secundum is the foramen ovale. • Finally two crescent-like, incomplete, partially overlapping septa exist with one hole on each. Septum secundum is more rigid and the septum primum on its left side acts as a valve letting the blood flow exclusively from the right to the left. Its importance will become obvious when the fetal circulation is discussed.

  41. Summary • Nothing is simplier then the development of the muscular part of the interventricular septum. • Similarly to the processes observeble at the level of atria, a crescent-like septum appears on the floor of the common ventricle. This septum grows upward until it reaches the bulbus cordis. Here the interventricular foramen persists for a while and will be closed by an other septum.

  43. 6th aortic arches dorsal aortae In the bulbus cordis and the truncus arteriosus two endocardial thickenings, bulbar and truncal ridges appear and exhibit a spiral course twisting 270 degrees* (90 degrees in each third of the full length). * Different values between 180 and 270 degrees can be found in different textbooks.

  44. 6th aortic arches dorsal aortae The two bulbar and truncal ridges (= conotruncal ridges as used by others) approach each other.

  45. „hook” 6th aortic arches dorsal aortae Finally, a complete spiral septum is formed. An additional hook-shaped septum arises from the superior edge of this septum and isolates the posterior portion of the truncus arteriosus.

  46. dorsal aortae pulmonary arteries Venous blood (blue) from the right ventricle ascends and from the posterior portion of the truncus arteriosus may only flow toward the pulmonary arteries developing from the 6th aortic arches. Blood from the left ventricle (red) exits through the two dorsal aortae.
