Neural induction (NI) is the process through which pluripotent ectodermal cells are committed to a neural fate. In vertebrates, the dorsal organizer produces BMP antagonists, and other signals that induce neural cell fate. However, not much was known about NI in other chordates. Our team previously shown that the cephalochordate B. lanceolatum presents a functional organizer, and that the acquisition of epidermal fate relies on BMP activation. However, deprivation of BMP signals leads to an undifferentiated state of the ectoderm, indicating that BMP inhibition is not sufficient for NI. Moreover, FGF signal inhibition does not block NI, in the contrary to what is observed in several chordate lineages, suggesting that FGF is not the key signa...
