The neural crest is a fascinating embryonic population unique to vertebrates that is endowed
with remarkable differentiation capacity. Thought to originate from ectodermal tissue, neural …

The neural crest is a multipotent and migratory cell type that forms transiently in the
developing vertebrate embryo. These cells emerge from the central nervous system, migrate …

The neural crest is a transient population of multipotent and migratory cells unique to
vertebrate embryos. Initially derived from the borders of the neural plate, these cells undergo …

The neural crest is a population of cells that forms at the junction between the epidermis and
neural plate in vertebrate embryos. Recent progress has elucidated the identity and timing of …

In the vertebrate embryo, multiple cell types originate from a common structure, the neural
crest (NC), which forms at the dorsal tips of the neural epithelium. The NC gives rise to …

The neural crest is a migratory and multipotent cell population that plays a crucial role in
many aspects of embryonic development. In all vertebrate embryos, these cells emerge from …

Neural crest cells are a vertebrate innovation and form a wide variety of embryonic cell types
as diverse as peripheral neurons and facial skeleton. They undergo complex migration and …

We review here some of the historical highlights in exploratory studies of the vertebrate
embryonic structure known as the neural crest. The study of the molecular properties of the …

In early vertebrate development, the neural crest is specified in the embryonic ectoderm at
the boundary of the neural plate and the nonneural ectoderm. After the induction, the neural …

▪ Abstract The neural crest is a transient population of multipotent precursor cells named for
its site of origin at the crest of the closing neural folds in vertebrate embryos. Following …
