The neural tube in the Gallotia galloti Stage 22 (S.22) embryo is already closed at the level of the cervical flexure, while caudal closure does not end until S.23. Cell proliferation begins shortly after the final neural tube closure, being rapid and giving rise, by S.26, to a thick ventricular zone. Cell migration does not start until S.28, initially in the basal plate, and forming putative motoneurons. Migration in the alar plate does not start until S.33. The appearance of the first neurofilament protein-positive perikarya coincides with the structural and ultrastructural identification of the neuron, although neurofilament-immunoreactive cells can already be identified inside the ventricular zone. Finally, from S.35 onwards, after major cell migration has already occurred, neuronal maturation continues in situ.

Introduction: Anencephaly is a serious developmental defect of the central nervous system in which the brain and cranial vault are grossly malformed. The cerebrum and cerebellum are reduced or absent, but the hindbrain is present. Anencephaly is a part of the neural tube defect spectrum.

For the purpose of assessing image quality and calculating patient X-ray dosage in radiology, computed tomography (CT), fluoroscopy, mammography, and other fields, it is necessary to have prior knowledge of the X-ray energy spectrum. The main components of an X-ray tube are an electron filament, also known as the cathode, and an anode, which is often made of tungsten or rubidium and angled at a certain angle. At the point where the electrons generated by the cathode and the anode make contact, a spectrum of X-rays with energies spanning from zero to the maximum energy value of the released electrons is created.

Although several environmental factors may increase the risk of nervous system anomalies, the association between exposure to particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter of ≤ 2.5 μm (PM) and nervous system anomalies is not completely understood. This study aimed to examine the association between expoure to PM and nervous system anomalies, including specific phenotypes during preconception and early pregnancy and determine the crucial time windows.

Tissue development relies on the coordinated differentiation of stem cells in dynamically changing environments. The formation of the vertebrate neural tube from stem cells in the caudal lateral epiblast (CLE) is a well characterized example. Despite an understanding of the signalling pathways involved, the gene regulatory mechanisms remain poorly defined.

It is rare to find free floating fat droplets in the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) spaces of the brain. When fat droplets are seen in the CSF spaces, the most common cause is the rupture of a dermoid cyst. Dermoid cysts are congenital inclusion cysts that form during the neural tube closure between the third and fifth weeks of embryogenesis.
