Abstract: Abstract In vertebrates, during the gastrula stage of embryonic development, the dorsal part of the ectoderm (the animal pole) is fated to form the neural plate, whereas the ectoderm located at the ventral side will primarily form epidermis. Embryonic factors known as BMP antagonists play a critical role in the processes of neural and epidermal induction.
