Neural Crest Cells (NPB)


NeE.NPB.NCCs

Neural crest cells is a multipotent stem cell population which appears during early vertebrate development in the dorsal edges of the forming neural tube. These cells span the anterior-posterior axis and are specified accordingly to become the cranial, cardiac and trunk neural crest cell populations.
