Figure 2. Patterns of neural crest migration into adjacent paraxial mesenchyme and transition into pharyngeal arches. In the forebrain, neural crest travels as a sheet of cells that slides over the more rostral neural folds. In the midbrain, the neural crest cells move in a sequence of streams. In the rhombencephalon, neural crest moves in a segmental fashion laterally into the mesoderm adjacent t
