I. embryonic development of the CNS
A. neurulation is the formation of the CNS in the embryo• invagination of dorsal ectoderm
(outer layer of embryo)• this process is induced (caused) by the notochord

1. neural tube transverse sections

dorsal view
• the cranial end becomes the brain• the rest becomes the spinal cord

2. neural crest cells (green cells on slide 3) invaginate after neural tube cells and are not incorporated into the tube
• they form the sensory nerve cells

3. cells in the wall of the neural tube proliferate and migrate to surround the tube
• they form gray matter
4. these cells’ axons grow outwards away from the tube• they form white matter

B. expansion of the cranial end of the neural tube produces vesicles
• the walls of vesicles expand and thicken to form solid parts of brain
• fluid-filled cavities remain inside the vesicles (ventricles)

C. the brain bends to fit into the cranium• midbrain flexure• cervical flexure
Why doesn’t the cranium just get larger?

D. during expansion, the cerebrum grows outwards and around the diencephalon
