Neural induction, ie definition of the neural domain from the ectoderm, is a fundamental topic
that has fascinated developmental biologists for years. The concept was first proposed by …

▪ Abstract The formation of the vertebrate nervous system is initiated at gastrula stages of
development, when signals from a specialized cluster of cells (the organizer) trigger neural …

Since all cells ultimately are derived from a single cell–the fertilized egg–a complete
overview on the neuron development should peruse through initial steps of neural induction …

Nervous tissue is derived from early embryonic ectoderm, which also gives rise to epidermal
derivatives such as skin. The progression from naive ectoderm to differentiated postmitotic …

Neural induction constitutes the initial step in the generation of the vertebrate nervous
system. In attempting to understand the principles that underlie this process, two key issues …

Neural induction is the process by which embryonic cells in the ectoderm make a decision to
acquire a neural fate (to form the neural plate) rather than give rise to other structures such …

In embryos, the prospective nervous system forms during early development by a series of
molecular events named neural induction. This includes the early action of mesoderm …

In vertebrate embryos, the future nervous system forms during early development by a series
of molecular events named neural induction. This includes the early action of mesoderm …

How does the vertebrate embryo make a nervous system? This complex question has been
at the center of developmental biology for many years. The earliest step in this process–the …

▪ Abstract During early vertebrate development, the cells of the ectoderm choose between
two possible fates: neural and epidermal. The process of neural induction was discovered …
