Central Nervous System - primary vesicles

These 3 primary brain vesicles develop initially due to the neural plate being broader at the cranial (brain) end that the narrower caudal (spinal cord) end. When the plate fuses to form a tube, these 3 initial expansions (vesicles) result.

The development of the three primary brain vesicles on GD 10.5 in rats and GD 26 ± 1 in humans. The corresponding shading between panels illustrates the earlier origins of different regions from the three original brain vesicles with a horizontal and lateral view, respectively. Later they will develop into the 5 secondary vesicles.

Three primary brain vesicles: forebrain ( prosencephalon) - midbrain (mesencephalon) - hindbrain (rhombencephalon)
