Implication of the non-canonical Wnt pathway in neural tube defects [PDF]
, 2017 Motivation: Neurulation is the embryonic process that leads to the development of the neural tube, precursor of the brain and spinal cord. Failures in this process cause neural tube defects (NTD), such as spina bifida and other lethal defects.

Neural tube closure: cellular, molecular and biomechanical mechanisms. [PDF]
, 2017 Neural tube closure has been studied for many decades, across a range of vertebrates, as a paradigm of embryonic morphogenesis. Neurulation is of particular interest in view of the severe congenital malformations - 'neural tube defects' - that result ...

Neural tube defects-disorders of neurulation and related embryonic processes [PDF]
, 2013 Neural tube defects (NTDs) are severe congenital malformations affecting 1 in every 1000 pregnancies. ‘Open’ NTDs result from failure of primary neurulation as seen in anencephaly, myelomeningocele (open spina bifida), and craniorachischisis ...
