Development of sensory and neurosecretory cell types : vertebrate cranial placodes, volume 1
Schlosser, Gerhard
Development of sensory and neurosecretory cell types : vertebrate cranial placodes, volume 1 - Boca Raton : CRC Press, 2021. - x, 282 pages : illustrations (black and white, and colour) - Evolutionary cell biology .
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Most of the cranial sense organs of vertebrates arise from embryonic structures known as cranial placodes. Such placodes also give rise to sensory neurons that transmit information to the brain as well as to many neurosecretory cells. This book focuses on the development of sensory and neurosecretory cell types from cranial placodes by introducing the vertebrate head with its sense organs and neurosecretory organs and providing an overview of the various cranial placodes and their derivatives, including evidence of common embryonic primordia. Schlosser discusses how these primordia are established in the early embryo and how individual placodes develop. The latter chapters explain how various placodally derived sensory and neurosecretory cell types differentiate into discrete structures.
