  2. Neuroectoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroectoderm

    After formation of the tube, the brain forms into three sections; the hindbrain, the midbrain, and the forebrain. The types of neuroectoderm include: Neural crest. pigment cells in the skin; ganglia of the autonomic nervous system; dorsal root ganglia. facial cartilage; aorticopulmonary septum of the developing heart and lungs; ciliary body of ...

  4. Ectoderm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ectoderm

    Generally speaking, the ectoderm differentiates to form epithelial and neural tissues (spinal cord, nerves and brain). This includes the skin, linings of the mouth, anus, nostrils, sweat glands, hair and nails, [3] and tooth enamel. Other types of epithelium are derived from the endoderm. [3]

  5. Epithelium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epithelium

    Epithelium or epithelial tissue is a thin, continuous, protective layer of cells with little extracellular matrix. An example is the epidermis , the outermost layer of the skin . Epithelial ( mesothelial ) tissues line the outer surfaces of many internal organs , the corresponding inner surfaces of body cavities , and the inner surfaces of ...

  6. Connective tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connective_tissue

    Connective tissue is one of the four primary types of animal tissue, a group of cells that are similar in structure, along with epithelial tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue. [1] It develops mostly from the mesenchyme , derived from the mesoderm , the middle embryonic germ layer . [ 2 ]

  7. Neuroepithelial cell - Wikipedia

    The tumor occurs in the tissue covering the brain and spinal cord. The symptoms of the tumor are dependent on its location, but most children experience seizures that cannot be controlled by medication. DNT is usually treated through invasive surgery and the patients are usually capable of recovering fully, with little to no long-term effects. [9]

  8. Tissue (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tissue_(biology)

    Functions of epithelial tissue: The principle function of epithelial tissues are covering and lining of free surface; The cells of the body's surface form the outer layer of skin. Inside the body, epithelial cells form the lining of the mouth and alimentary canal and protect these organs. Epithelial tissues help in the elimination of waste.

  9. Ependyma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ependyma

    The ependyma is made up of ependymal cells called ependymocytes, a type of glial cell. These cells line the ventricles in the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord, which become filled with cerebrospinal fluid. These are nervous tissue cells with simple columnar shape, much like that of some mucosal epithelial cells. [2]
