Cell movements of the deep layer of non-neural ectoderm underlie complete neural tube closure in Xenopus.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Apr 2012

Abstract excerpt

In developing vertebrates, the neural tube forms from a sheet of neural ectoderm by complex cell movements and morphogenesis. Convergent extension movements and the apical constriction along with apical-basal elongation of cells in the neural ectoderm are thought to be essential for the neural tu...
