Imaging of cranial nerves: a pictorial overview
Insights into Imaging, 2019 The human body has 12 pairs of cranial nerves that control motor and sensory functions of the head and neck. The anatomy of cranial nerves is complex and its knowledge is crucial to detect pathological alterations in case of nervous disorders. Therefore,

Neuropilin 1 and 2 control cranial gangliogenesis and axon guidance through neural crest cells [PDF]
, 2008 Neuropilin (NRP) receptors and their class 3 semaphorin (SEMA3) ligands play well-established roles in axon guidance, with loss of NRP1, NRP2, SEMA3A or SEMA3F causing defasciculation and errors in growth cone guidance of peripherally projecting nerves ...

Cranial nerve development requires co-ordinated Shh and canonical Wnt signaling. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Cranial nerves govern sensory and motor information exchange between the brain and tissues of the head and neck. The cranial nerves are derived from two specialized populations of cells, cranial neural crest cells and ectodermal placode cells. Defects in
