  2. Neuroectoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroectoderm

    After formation of the tube, the brain forms into three sections; the hindbrain, the midbrain, and the forebrain. The types of neuroectoderm include: Neural crest. pigment cells in the skin; ganglia of the autonomic nervous system; dorsal root ganglia. facial cartilage; aorticopulmonary septum of the developing heart and lungs; ciliary body of ...

  3. Lipomeningomyelocele - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipomeningomyelocele

    The mesoderm and neural tube will continue to develop until a tumor of fat is formed. Later in development, membranes known as meninges will form around the neural tube, but in a lipomyelomeningocele, there is a disruption in their formation that will create a space for the meninges and the lipoma to spread towards the skin behind the spinal ...

  4. Neurulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurulation

    Failure of neurulation, especially failure of closure of the neural tube are among the most common and disabling birth defects in humans, occurring in roughly 1 in every 500 live births. [42] Failure of the rostral end of the neural tube to close results in anencephaly, or lack of brain development, and is most often fatal. [43]

  5. Neural crest - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_crest

    The neural crest is a ridge-like structure that is formed transiently between the epidermal ectoderm and neural plate during vertebrate development. Neural crest cells originate from this structure through the epithelial-mesenchymal transition, and in turn give rise to a diverse cell lineage—including melanocytes, craniofacial cartilage and bone, smooth muscle, dentin, peripheral and enteric ...

    Beginning in the future neck region, the neural folds of this groove close to create the neural tube. The formation of the neural tube from the ectoderm is called neurulation. The ventral part of the neural tube is called the basal plate; the dorsal part is called the alar plate. The hollow interior is called the neural canal. By the end of the ...

  8. Mesoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesoderm

    The notochord extends beneath the neural tube from the head to the tail. The mesoderm moves to the midline until it covers the notochord. When the mesoderm cells proliferate, they form the paraxial mesoderm. In each side, the mesoderm remains thin, and is known as the lateral plate. The intermediate mesoderm lies between the paraxial mesoderm ...

  9. Organogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organogenesis

    The development of the neural tube will give rise to the brain and spinal cord. [1] Vertebrates develop a neural crest that differentiates into many structures, including bones, muscles, and components of the central nervous system. Differentiation of the ectoderm into the neural crest, neural tube, and surface ectoderm is sometimes referred to ...
