From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Neural Fold is the structure, or fold, formed during the neurulation stage of development which forms the neural tube. While the neural fold is not a specific cell type, there are many defined types of cells and structures which are involved with the neural fold and folding.[1] Important molecules and proteins are responsible for the neural fold and there are documented disorders associated with problems with the formation of the neural tube categorized as neural tube defects.[2]
