Preferred Label : neural crest;
MeSH definition : 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.;
