  2. Development of the nervous system - Wikipedia

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

    The vertebrate central nervous system (CNS) is derived from the ectoderm—the outermost germ layer of the embryo. A part of the dorsal ectoderm becomes specified to neural ectoderm – neuroectoderm that forms the neural plate along the dorsal side of the embryo.

  3. Nervous tissue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nervous_tissue

    Nervous tissue, also called neural tissue, is the main tissue component of the nervous system.The nervous system regulates and controls body functions and activity. It consists of two parts: the central nervous system (CNS) comprising the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system (PNS) comprising the branching peripheral nerves.

  4. Evolution of nervous systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_of_nervous_systems

    The development of the nervous system in radiata is relatively unstructured. Unlike bilaterians, radiata only have two primordial cell layers, endoderm and ectoderm. Neurons are generated from a special set of ectodermal precursor cells, which also serve as precursors for every other ectodermal cell type. [17]

  5. Development of the nervous system in humans - Wikipedia

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

    The development of the nervous system in humans, or neural development, or neurodevelopment involves the studies of embryology, developmental biology, and neuroscience.These describe the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which the complex nervous system forms in humans, develops during prenatal development, and continues to develop postnatally.

  6. Neurulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurulation

    The tissue from the donor embryo was therefore referred to as the inducer because it induced the change. [9] While the organizer is the dorsal lip of the blastopore, this is not one set of cells, but rather is a constantly changing group of cells that migrate over the dorsal lip of the blastopore by forming apically constricted bottle cells.

  7. Outline of neuroscience - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_neuroscience

    The field draws on both neuroscience and developmental biology to provide insight into the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which complex nervous systems develop. Human brain development timeline; Development of the nervous system in humans; Prenatal development - Cognitive development; Aging and memory (see also Child development - Mechanisms)

  8. Neurogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurogenesis

    Stages of neuronal development in the fetal cerebral cortex Model of mammalian neurogenesis [4]. During embryonic development, the mammalian central nervous system (CNS; brain and spinal cord) is derived from the neural tube, which contains NSCs that will later generate neurons. [3]
