There are a vast range of diseases and disorders that are neurocristopathic in origin, including Hirschsprung's disease, pheochromocytoma, familial dysautonomia, craniofacial disorders, and melanomas. Having a source of human neural crest cells is highly valuable for investigating potential treatments for such diseases. This chapter describes a robust and well-characterized protocol for deriving neural crest from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), which can then be differentiated to neuronal and non-neuronal lineages. The protocol is adapted to suit hPSC maintenance as a monolayer bulk culture or as manual-passaged colonies, which makes it widely applicable to researchers that may use different systems for hPSC maintenance.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009432 Neural Crest 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.

D009474 Neurons The basic cellular units of nervous tissue. Each neuron consists of a body, an axon, and dendrites. Their purpose is to receive, conduct, and transmit impulses in the NERVOUS SYSTEM. Nerve Cells,Cell, Nerve,Cells, Nerve,Nerve Cell,Neuron
D002454 Cell Differentiation Progressive restriction of the developmental potential and increasing specialization of function that leads to the formation of specialized cells, tissues, and organs. Differentiation, Cell,Cell Differentiations,Differentiations, Cell
