As an embryo grows, there is a continuous stream of communication between cells to form tissues and organs. Cells need to ...

Researchers found that electric fields inside embryos guide migrating cells. The enzyme Vsp1 helps cells sense and respond to ...

Building and shaping an embryo requires the concerted effort of numerous signals and molecular interactions during development. One essential aspect of this process is collective cell migration, where ...

Researchers have identified endogenous electric fields in developing embryos that guide the migration of neural crest cells, ...

We have described the clinical manifestations of isotretinoin (ISO) neuroembryopathy (J Ped, 105, 595, 1984) and with others have suggested that disturbances in neural crest development may ...

The ZIC2 gene drives the migration of neural crest cells (in green) during early embryonic stages, a process essential for forming the vertebrate nervous system. Credit: The American Journal of ...
