OverviewVertebrates possess lineage-specific characteristics. These include paired anterior sense organs and a robust, modular head skeleton built of cellular cartilage and bone. All of these structures are derived, at least partly, from an embryonic tissue unique vertebrates - the neural crest. The evolutionary history of the neural crest, and neural crest cells, has been difficult to reconstruct. This volume will use a comparative approach to survey the development of the neural crest in vertebrates, and neural crest-like cells, across the metazoa. This information will be used to reveal neural crest evolution and identify the genomic, genetic, and gene-regulatory changes that drove them. Key selling features: Summarizes the data regarding neural crest cells and nerural crest derivatives Uses a broad-based comparative approach Suggests hypothesis that the origin of neural crest cells involved the novel co-activation of ancient metazoan gene programs in neural border cells Illustrates how the emergences of neural crest made possible the diversification of vertebrate heads Full Product DetailsAuthor: Brian Frank Eames , Daniel Meulemans Medeiros (University of Colorado, Boulder, EBIO Department, Boulder, Colorado, USA) , Igor Adameyko (Karolinska Institutet, Department of Physiology and Pharmacology (FyFa), Biomedicum 6D, Sweden)Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd Imprint: CRC Press Weight: 0.540kg ISBN: 9780367522742ISBN 10: 0367522748 Pages: 294 Publication Date: 29 April 2022 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print  This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
