  1. Placenta and the Male Reproductive System Rachel Boggus Boggusrl@email.uc.edu

  2. Orientation to development of the placenta • What happens to the stratum functionalis after implantation? • What are these responses called? What is the endometrium now called? Free template from www.brainybetty.com

  3. Orientation to development of the placenta • What happens to the stratum functionalis after implantation? • Cells enlarge and proliferate decidual cells… synthesize prolactin and relaxin. Also becomes more highly vascularized • What are these responses called? What is the endometrium now called? • Called decidual reaction, endometrium called decidua Free template from www.brainybetty.com

  4. decidual cells relaxin prolactin Free template from www.brainybetty.com

  5. Selective elaboration of the chorion • What does it mean to say that implantation is interstitial? • What is the chorion frondosum? • What is the chorion laeve? Free template from www.brainybetty.com

  6. Selective elaboration of the chorion • What does it mean to say that implantation is interstitial? • Embryo completely embeds itself into maternal decidual tissue • What is the chorion frondosum? • Disk shaped region of chorion that continues to develop • What is the chorion laeve? • Regions of chorion near decidua capsularis that regress Free template from www.brainybetty.com

  23. Functions of syncytiotrophoblast • What are cytotrophoblast cells like? • Stem cells—cuboidal, dispersed chromatin, lack of elaborate organelles • What about the syncytiotrophoblasts? (hormones, appearance?) • Very active cells—multinucleated, microvilli, numerous pinocytic vesicles. HCG, estrogen, progesterone and prolactin • What maintains the corpus luteum? • HCG Free template from www.brainybetty.com

  25. Maternal cotyledons • What are they? Free template from www.brainybetty.com

  26. Maternal cotyledons • What are they? • Formed by placental septa • Composed of core of decidual tissue covered by cytotrophoblast and snycytiotrophoblast. • Do not reach the opposing chorionic plate Free template from www.brainybetty.com

  27. Gas Exchange • They love to ask questions about gas exchange so know this! • Is there direct mixing of fetal and maternal blood? • What are the layers that O2 must pass through initially? Free template from www.brainybetty.com

  28. Gas Exchange • They love to ask questions about gas exchange so know this! • Is there direct mixing of fetal and maternal blood? NO • What are the layers that O2 must pass through initially? • syncytiotrophoblast • cytotrophoblast • basement membrane cytotropho.. • extraembryonic mesenchyme • basement memb. Fetal endoth. • fetal endothelial cells Free template from www.brainybetty.com

  29. What are the modifications as the placental matures? • Clustering of the nuclei of syncytiotrophoblast syncytial knots • Cytotrophoblast cells cease division (eventually not a continuous layer) • Fetal bld vessels move closer to syncytiotrophoblast layer (eventually basal lamina of syncyts. Fuses with fetal endothelium basal lamina.) Free template from www.brainybetty.com

Mammary Gland Development • Before puberty sparse duct system with little adipose tissue • At puberty which hormones induce secondary sex characteristics in breasts? • Estrogen, progesterone, growth hormone, thyroid hormone, glucocorticoids • What are these changes? • Inc. adipose, CT, and bld. Vessels, enlargement of areola Free template from www.brainybetty.com

  44. Post-puberty • Cyclical changes in response to hormones • Beginning of cycle—sparse glands and ducts. End—more elaborate and lumen apparent within alveoli • Pregnancy—estrogen induces branching and progesterone cause alveolar development • Towards the end of pregnancy secretory cells enlarge and distend with colostrum • Expansion of the duct is at the expense of the surrounding fat and CT. • After birth produces milk rich in lipid • SECRETORY cells eosinophilic with clear vacuoles from lipid droplet dissolution Free template from www.brainybetty.com
