sonic hedgehog
inducertranscription factorsignaling molecule released from notochord
stages of neurolation
- induce ecto over noto to thicken and form neural plate2. plate invaginates –> neural groove3. deepen + form neural crests4. crests merge @ midline –> hollow neural tube
nervous system germ layer origin
ectoderm
CNS origin
neural tube
neural tube defect markers
high AFP (alpha fetoprotein)high AChE (acetylcholinesterase)
neural fold –> neural tube steps

neuro development - primary vesicles

neuro development - secondary vesicles
