A chemical screen in zebrafish embryonic cells establishes that Akt activation is required for neural crest development

open access: yeseLife, 2017
The neural crest is a dynamic progenitor cell population that arises at the border of neural and non-neural ectoderm. The inductive roles of FGF, Wnt, and BMP at the neural plate border are well established, but the signals required for subsequent neural

Beta-actin is required for proper mouse neural crest ontogeny. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The mouse genome consists of six functional actin genes of which the expression patterns are temporally and spatially regulated during development and in the adult organism. Deletion of beta-actin in mouse is lethal during embryonic development, although

SnapShot: Neural Crest

open access: yesCell, 2010
The neural crest is a transient population of cells that emerges from the neural tube during the early stages of embryonic development. Neural crest cells are unique to vertebrates and have properties similar to stem cells, including the ability to differentiate into many cell types (i.e., multipotency) and to regenerate.

Modularity patterns in mammalian domestication: Assessing developmental hypotheses for diversification

open access: yesEvolution Letters, 2021
The neural crest hypothesis posits that selection for tameness resulted in mild alterations to neural crest cells during embryonic development, which directly or indirectly caused the appearance of traits associated with the “domestication syndrome” (DS).

Annexin a6 modulates chick cranial neural crest cell emigration. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The vertebrate neural crest is a population of migratory cells that originates in the dorsal aspect of the embryonic neural tube. These cells undergo an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), delaminate from the neural tube and migrate extensively ...

Impact of Metastatic Patterns on Survival and Response to Therapy in Neuroblastoma

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background While the presence of metastases in neuroblastoma (NB) is a well‐established prognostic factor, the clinical significance of dissemination patterns and tumour burden and their impact on response and survival remains poorly understood.

Posteriorizing factor Gbx2 is a direct target of Wnt signalling during neural crest induction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Wnt signalling is required for neural crest induction; however the direct targets of the Wnt pathway during neural crest induction remain unknown. I show here that the homeobox gene Gbx2 is essential in this process and is directly activated by Wnt/β ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Defining properties of neural crest-derived progenitor cells from the apex of human developing tooth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The connective tissue of the human tooth arises from cells that are derived from the cranial neural crest and, thus, are termed as "ectomesenchymal cells." Here, cells being located in a pad-like tissue adjacent to the apex of the developing tooth, which

A novel role for Lh3 dependent ECM modifications during neural crest cell migration in zebrafish. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
During vertebrate development, trunk neural crest cells delaminate along the entire length of the dorsal neural tube and initially migrate as a non-segmented sheet.
