Neural crest cells are a temporary group of cells that arise from the embryonic ectoderm germ layer, and in turn give rise to a diverse cell lineage—including...

vertebrate embryos, which includes the transformation of the neural plate into the neural tube. The embryo at this stage is termed the neurula. The process...

create the neural tube. The figure demonstrates the development of the neural plate into the neural tube, which is where the neural crest cells are derived...

migration of neural crest cells during embryonic development (though some of the genes involved also affect the neural tube). Neural crest cells are stem...

Neural crest cells are multipotent cells required for the development of cells, tissues and organ systems. A subpopulation of neural crest cells are the...

long after the closure of the neural plate. Development of the olfactory placode requires the presence underlying neural crest-derived mesenchymal tissue...

neural plate, which invaginates to form the neural tube and neural crest. The surface ectoderm gives rise to most epithelial tissues, and the neural plate...

has been disputed. Other research suggested that pleiotropic change in neural crest cell regulating genes was the common cause of shared traits seen in many...

The cranial neural crest is one of the four regions of the neural crest. The cranial neural crest arises in the anterior and populates the face and the...
