Overview of lung development

blue Black Red
Lung development is subdivided into 5 morphologically defined stages

Embryonic - Pseudoglandular - Canalicular - Saccular - Alveolar

Stages correlated to development of airways

Initial airways are all of the conducting system

Stages correlated to development of blood vessels
Ventilatory unit is a tree of alveolar ducts served by a most distal respiratory bronchiole.

Acinus is defined as a small tree of airways served by a most distal purely conducting airway (terminal bronchiole).

On average a human airway ends after 23 generations (range 18–30) in an alveolar saccule. A capillary plexus surrounding the growing lung buds give rise to the pre-acinar arteries by the mechanism of vasculogenesis. The intra-acinar arteries are formed by angiogenesis.



In mouse and rat the acini and the ventilatory units are the same entity because they do not possess any respiratory bronchioles.
