  2. Ectoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ectoderm

    As the ectoderm continues to elongate, the ectodermal cells of the neural plate fold inward. The inward folding of the ectoderm by virtue of mainly cell division continues until another group of cells forms within the neural plate. These cells are termed dorsolateral hinge cells (DLHPs), and, once formed, the inward folding of the ectoderm stops.

  3. Germ layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germ_layer

    The ectoderm generates the outer layer of the embryo, and it forms from the embryo's epiblast. [13] The ectoderm develops into the surface ectoderm, neural crest, and the neural tube. [14] The surface ectoderm develops into: epidermis, hair, nails, lens of the eye, sebaceous glands, cornea, tooth enamel, the epithelium of the mouth and nose.

  4. List of human cell types derived from the germ layers

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_human_cell_types...

    This is a list of cells in humans derived from the three embryonic germ layers – ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. Cells derived from ectoderm. Surface ectoderm

  5. Organogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organogenesis

    Organogenesis is the phase of embryonic development that starts at the end of gastrulation and continues until birth.During organogenesis, the three germ layers formed from gastrulation (the ectoderm, endoderm, and mesoderm) form the internal organs of the organism.

  6. Neuroectoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroectoderm

    Neuroectoderm (or neural ectoderm or neural tube epithelium) consists of cells derived from the ectoderm. Formation of the neuroectoderm is the first step in the development of the nervous system . [ 1 ]

  7. Apical ectodermal ridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apical_ectodermal_ridge

    The AEF potentially functions as an inhibitor to fin outgrowth since removing the AEF results in the formation of a new AER and subsequently a new AEF. In addition, repeated AF removal leads to excessive elongation of the fin mesenchyme, potentially because of prolonged exposure of AER signals to the fin mesenchyme. [ 16 ]

  8. Bilaminar embryonic disc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilaminar_embryonic_disc

    The amnion and chorion are composed of extraembryonic ectoderm and mesoderm, whereas the yolk sac is composed of extraembryonic endoderm and mesoderm. By day 13, the connecting stalk , a dense portion of extraembryonic mesoderm, restrains the embryonic disc in the gestational sac.

  9. Surface ectoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_ectoderm

    The surface ectoderm, AKA external ectoderm, is one of the two early embryonic divisions of the ectoderm. The other early division of the ectoderm is the neuroectoderm. The surface ectoderm develops into the following structures: Skin (only the epidermis; the dermis is derived from the mesoderm) (along with glands, hair, and nails)
