  2. Optic stalk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optic_stalk

    The optic vesicles project toward the sides of the head, and the peripheral part of each expands to form a hollow bulb, while the proximal part remains narrow and constitutes the optic stalk. [1] [2] Closure of the choroidal fissure in the optic stalk occurs during the seventh week of development. The former optic stalk is then called the optic ...

  3. Eye development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_development

    Only the epidermis in the head is competent to respond to the signal from the optic vesicles. Both the optic vesicle and the head epidermis are required for eye development. The competence of the head epidermis to respond to the optic vesicle signals comes from the expression of Pax6 in the epidermis. Pax6 is necessary and sufficient for eye ...

  4. Human embryonic development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_embryonic_development

    The optical vesicle (which eventually becomes the optic nerve, retina and iris) forms at the basal plate of the prosencephalon. The alar plate of the prosencephalon expands to form the cerebral hemispheres (the telencephalon) whilst its basal plate becomes the diencephalon. Finally, the optic vesicle grows to form an optic outgrowth.

  5. Optic vesicle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optic_vesicle

    These diverticula make their appearance before the closure of the anterior end of the neural tube; [1] [2] after the closure of the tube around the 4th week of development, they are known as the optic vesicles. Previous studies of optic vesicles suggest that the surrounding extraocular tissues – the surface ectoderm and extraocular mesenchyme ...

  6. Neurogenic placode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurogenic_placode

    The lens placode under the direction of the optic vesicle gives rise to the lens of the eye. The adenohypophyseal placode , which forms the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland . Other animals

  7. Neural groove - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_groove

    The cephalic end of the neural groove exhibits several dilatations, which, when the tube is closed, assume the form of three vesicles; these constitute the three primary cerebral vesicles and correspond respectively to the future fore-brain (prosencephalon), midbrain (mesencephalon), and hind-brain (rhombencephalon).

  9. Development of the nervous system in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_the_nervous...

    The optical vesicle (which will eventually become the optic nerve, retina and iris) forms at the basal plate of the prosencephalon. The spinal cord forms from the lower part of the neural tube. The wall of the neural tube consists of neuroepithelial cells, which differentiate into neuroblasts, forming the mantle layer (the gray matter).
