Somitic mesoderm morphogenesis is necessary for neural tube closure during Xenopus development
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 Neural tube closure is a fundamental process during vertebrate embryogenesis, which leads to the formation of the central nervous system. Defective neural tube closure leads to neural tube defects which are some of the most common human birth defects ...

A quest for genetic causes underlying signaling pathways associated with neural tube defects
Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023 Neural tube defects (NTDs) are serious congenital deformities of the nervous system that occur owing to the failure of normal neural tube closures. Genetic and non-genetic factors contribute to the etiology of neural tube defects in humans, indicating ...

Junctional Neural Tube Defect [PDF]
Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society, 2020 Junctional neurulation represents the most recent adjunct to the well-known sequential embryological processes of primary and secondary neurulation. While its exact molecular processes, occurring at the end of primary and the beginning of secondary neurulation, are still being actively investigated, its pathological counterpart -junctional neural tube ...

International Journal of Africa Nursing Sciences, 2021 Background: Neural tube defects are one of the most common malformations with a worldwide prevalence of 1–3 per1000 live births. They are the result of failure of the neural tube to close during the 21–28 embryonic days and it had multi-factorial ...

Demonstration of astrocytes in cultured amniotic fluid cells of three cases with neural-tube defect [PDF]
, 1981 We have investigated the origin of rapidly adhering (RA) cells in three cases of neural tube defects (two anencephali, one encephalocele). We were able to demonstrate the presence of glial fibrillary acidic (GFA) protein in variable percentages (4–80 ...

Introduction: Neural tube defects [PDF]
Neurosurgical Focus, 2012 This volume of Neurosurgical Focus covers an array of topics useful to many specialists who care for patients with neural tube defects and related abnormalities. These patients have specific needs at each stage of the lifespan. Today, many individuals with significant developmental abnormalities of the spinal cord are leading full lives.

Genetics of human neural tube defects [PDF]
, 2009 Neural tube defects (NTDs) are common, severe congenital malformations whose causation involves multiple genes and environmental factors. Although more than 200 genes are known to cause NTDs in mice, there has been rather limited progress in delineating ...
