Journal ArticleDOI

Biomechanical coupling facilitates spinal neural tube closure in mouse embryos.

TL;DR: Biomechanical coupling of the entire region of active spinal neurulation in the mouse embryo is identified as a prerequisite for successful NT closure, using mouse embryos to investigate the biomechanics of mammalian spinal closure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of cell protrusions by small GTPases during fusion of the neural folds

TL;DR: Evidence is provided for the essential role and molecular regulation of membrane protrusions prior to fusion of a key organ primordium in mammalian development by genetically ablating the cytoskeletal regulators Rac1 or Cdc42.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular basis of neuroepithelial bending during mouse spinal neural tube closure

TL;DR: Findings suggest a model in which DLHP formation may proceed through ‘buckling’ of the neuroepithelium at a dorso-ventral boundary marked by a change in cell-packing density.
Book ChapterDOI

Comparative analysis of human and mouse development: From zygote to pre-gastrulation

TL;DR: Current knowledge of mammalian development of both mouse and human is reviewed, focusing on morphogenetic processes leading to the onset of gastrulation, when the embryonic anterior-posterior axis becomes established and the three germ layers start to be specified.
