    GlossaryNeural Crest

    group of embryonic cells that form diverse tissues

    The neural crest is a group of cells in vertebrate embryos that emerge from the edges of the neural tube, which later develops into the central nervous system. These cells migrate to various parts of the body and differentiate into a diverse range of tissues, including some types of neurons, glial cells, and even pigment cells in the skin.
