Descriptor

cresta neural

Scope note:

Los dos engrosamientos longitudinales situados a lo largo de la LÍNEA PRIMITIVA que aparecen casi al final de la GASTRULACIÓN, durante el desarrollo del sistema nervioso (NEURULACIÓN). Las crestas están formadas por repliegues de la PLACA NEURAL. Entre las crestas está el surco neural, que va profundizándose a medida que se elevan los pliegues. Cuando los pliegues se unen en la línea media, el surco se transforma en un tubo cerrado, el TUBO NEURAL.

Scope note:

The two longitudinal ridges along the PRIMITIVE STREAK appearing near the end of GASTRULATION during development of nervous system (NEURULATION). The ridges are formed by folding of NEURAL PLATE. Between the ridges is a neural groove which deepens as the fold become elevated. When the folds meet at midline, the groove becomes a closed tube, the NEURAL TUBE.
