    Study Notes

    Nervous System Development

    • Neural tube develops from neuroectoderm
    • Neural crest cells give rise to peripheral nervous system structures
    • Placodes contribute to sensory structures
    • The neural tube forms vesicles, which differentiate into various brain regions
    • Spinal cord develops from the neural tube
    • Myelencephalon forms part of the hindbrain
    • Metencephalon forms part of the hindbrain
    • Mesencephalon forms the midbrain
    • Diencephalon develops into structures like the optic structures and hypophysis (pituitary gland)
    • Telencephalon forms the cerebrum
    • Sympathetic nervous system develops from specific areas
    • Parasympathetic nervous system develops from specific areas
    • Cranial nerves originate from different stages of neural tube development
    • Choroid plexus originates from the neural tube
    • Congenital malformations of the CNS include various anomalies
