In about one out of every 1,000 pregnancies, the neural tube, a key nervous system structure, fails to close properly.
By examining genetic clues that linger in adult cells, scientists have now gained surprising insights into the developmental ...
Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital imaged cellular projections called cytonemes that transfer signals across long distances during development St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital ...
Precursor cells in the embryonic neural tube are organized in a specific striped pattern which depends on the signals they receive (left). Lehr and colleagues recreated this pattern in a cell culture ...
When do peripheral nerves develop? Researchers used "mosaic barcodes" to prove that neural crest cells commit to their ...
Their findings, recently reported in the journal Nature, overturn longstanding assumptions in developmental biology and could ...
Discover the first images of cytonemes during mammalian neural development, serving as express routes to establish morphogen gradients and tissue patterning. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital ...
