Extracellular signals, cell interactions and transcription factors involved in the induction of the neural crest cells

The neural crest is induced at the border between the neural plate and the epidermis. A complex set of signals is required for the specification of the crest cells between the epidermis and the neural plate. Here we discuss evidence supporting a model for neural crest induction in which different si...
