MonographDOI
The neural crest
TL;DR: The Neural Crest is a structure unique to the vertebrate embryo, which has only a transient existence in early embryonic life as discussed by the authors, and the ontogeny of the neural crest embodies the most important issues in developmental biology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural crest cell plasticity and its limits
TL;DR: The neural crest (NC) yields pluripotent cells endowed with migratory properties that give rise to neurons, glia, melanocytes and endocrine cells, and to diverse `mesenchymal' derivatives.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ligand-dependent development of the endothelial and hemopoietic lineages from embryonic mesodermal cells expressing vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2
Anne Eichmann,Catherine Corbel,V. Nataf,Pierre Vaigot,Christiane Bréant,Nicole M. Le Douarin +5 more
TL;DR: Observations suggest strongly that in the absence of the VEGFR2 gene product, the precursors of both hemopoietic and vascular endothelial lineages cannot survive and these cells therefore might be the initial targets ofThe VEG FR2 null mutation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interactions between Hox-negative cephalic neural crest cells and the foregut endoderm in patterning the facial skeleton in the vertebrate head.
TL;DR: The findings indicate that the endoderm instructs neural crest cells as to the size, shape and position of all the facial skeletal elements, whether they are cartilage or membrane bones.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping of the early neural primordium in quail-chick chimeras: I. Developmental relationships between placodes, facial ectoderm, and prosencephalon
TL;DR: Grafting of the neural plate area adjacent to the "ridge" territory containing the placodal ectoderm revealed that the presumptive region of the hypothalamus is in contiguity with that of the adenohypophyseal placode.
