Prostaglandins in neural crest-tumours
Prostaglandins, 1975Prostaglandin and catecholamine concentrations were estimated in tumour tissues taken from four phaeochromcytomas and five other neural-crest tumours. Prostaglandins were found to be present in tumours both associated and non-associated with chronic diarrhoea.

Mechanisms of Neural Crest Migration
Annual Review of Genetics, 2018Neural crest cells are a transient embryonic cell population that migrate collectively to various locations throughout the embryo to contribute a number of cell types to several organs. After induction, the neural crest delaminates and undergoes an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition before migrating through intricate yet characteristic paths.

7 Neural Crest Diversification
1998This chapter discusses some of the basic principles that have emerged from the study of neural crest biology. It discusses the origin of the neural crest in the embryo and considers some of the general principles underlying neural crest diversification.

Extended Multipotency of Neural Crest Cells and Neural Crest-Derived Cells
2015Neural crest cells (NCC) are migratory multipotent cells that give rise to diverse derivatives. They generate various cell types during embryonic development, including neurons and glial cells of the peripheral sensory and autonomic ganglia, Schwann cells, melanocytes, endocrine cells, smooth muscle, and skeletal and connective tissue cells of the ...

Evolutionary Origins of the Neural Crest and Neural Crest Cells
Evolutionary Biology, 2008I evaluate the lines of evidence—cell types, genes, gene pathways, fossils—in putative chordate ancestors—cephalochordates and ascidians—pertaining to the evolutionary origin of the vertebrate neural crest. Given the intimate relationship between the neural crest and the dorsal nervous system during development, I discuss the dorsal nervous system in ...

Development of the Neural Crest in the Zebrafish
Developmental Biology, 1993The embryonic zebrafish is rapidly becoming an important model system for studies of early events in vertebrate development. We review recent work describing the development of zebrafish neural crest and experimental studies examining the cellular, molecular, and genetic mechanisms of crest development.

Morphogenesis of the Neural Crest
1986The vertebrate neural crest has been, and continues to be, the subject of active investigation, because it offers developmental biologists a unique model system with which to study control of morphogenesis as well as cellular differentiation. Neural crest cells migrate great distances in the embryo and move along many diverse pathways.

Neural Crest and Tooth Morphogenesis
Advances in Dental Research, 2001Mammalian teeth develop from two types of cells: stomodeal ectoderm, which forms ameloblasts, and cranial neural-crest-derived (ecto) mesenchyme cells, which form odontoblasts and cementoblasts. These two cell types, juxtaposed in the developing oral cavity, interact to control the entire process of tooth initiation, morphogenesis, and ...

2015
As vertebrates evolved from protochordates, they shifted to a more predatory lifestyle, and radiated and adapted to most niches of the planet. This process was largely facilitated by the generation of novel vertebrate head structures, which were derived from neural crest cells (NCC).

Specification of Zebrafish Neural Crest
2002Analysis of neural crest cells in wild-type zebrafish and in isolated mutants has complemented studies in other organisms and has led to a greater understanding of the processes of cell fate and regional specification. Analysis of pigment cell development suggests that neural crest cell fate specification results from a combination of intrinsic cues ...
