To answer this question, Dr. Barriga and his team identified an enzyme known as voltage-sensitive phosphatase 1 (Vsp1) found in neural crest cells. Due to the versatile structure of Vsp1, it ...

Human ES cells can now be used to induce structures with regionalized maxillary and mandibular primordia through the neural crest cell state, allowing for the recapitulation of jaw development in ...

We have described the clinical manifestations of isotretinoin (ISO) neuroembryopathy (J Ped, 105, 595, 1984) and with others have suggested that disturbances in neural crest development may ...

Specific functional, electric firing properties of those neurons are shown by electrophysiology. Directing neural crest and sensory placode lineages Multipotent neural crest (NC) precursor cells have ...
