Figure 5: Disruption of cell migration & intercalation.

Figure 5:

A) Illustration of NE cell sheet with selected cells marked in purple. B) Convergent extensions movements drive the narrowing and lengthening of the cell sheet due to cell migration and intercalation. C) Disruptions to cell migration & intercalation result in a wide neural plate which prevents contact of neural folds.
