Abstract excerpt
Neural crest cells (NCCs) derive early in vertebrate ontogenesis from neural tube as a population of migratory cells with exquisite differentiation potential. Abnormalities in NCC behaviour are cause of debilitating diseases including cancers and a spectrum of neurocristopathies. Thanks to their multilineage differentiation capacity NCCs offer a cell source for regenerative medicine. Both these aspects make NCC...
