Nucleotide precursors prevent folic acid-resistant neural tube defects in the mouse [PDF]
, 2013 Closure of the neural tube during embryogenesis is a crucial step in development of the central nervous system. Failure of this process results in neural tube defects, including spina bifida and anencephaly, which are among the most common birth defects ...

Birth prevalence of neural tube defects and orofacial clefts in India: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND: In the last two decades, India has witnessed a substantial decrease in infant mortality attributed to infectious disease and malnutrition. However, the mortality attributed to birth defects remains constant. Studies on the prevalence of birth

Neural tube defects: recent advances, unsolved questions, and controversies [PDF]
, 2013 Neural tube defects are severe congenital malformations affecting around one in every 1000 pregnancies. An innovation in clinical management has come from the finding that closure of open spina bifida lesions in utero can diminish neurological ...

Neogenin and RGMa control neural tube closure and neuroepithelial morphology by regulating cell polarity [PDF]
, 2008 In humans, neural tube closure defects occur in 1: 1000 pregnancies. The design of new strategies for the prevention of such common defects would benefit from an improved understanding of the molecular events underlying neurulation. Neural fold elevation

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 ...

Lack of serologic evidence for an association between Cache Valley Virus infection and anencephaly and other neural tube defects in Texas. [PDF]
, 1997 We tested the hypothesis that Cache Valley Virus (CVV), an endemic North American bunyavirus, may be involved in the pathogenesis of human neural tube defects. This investigation followed a 1990 and 1991 south Texas outbreak of neural tube defects with a

Magnetic resonance imaging in the prenatal diagnosis of neural tube defects [PDF]
, 2013 OBJECTIVE: To assess the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the prenatal diagnosis of neural tube defects (NTDs). BACKGROUND: NTDs comprise a heterogeneous group of congenital anomalies that derive from the failure of the neural tube to close ...
