“…During embryonic development of the neural crest, which gives rise to the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and several nonneuronal cell types (Bronner and LeDouarin, 2012), HOX and SOX genes are regulated by retinoic acid (Duester, 2008;Nolte et al, 2014;Tremblay et al, 2012), a product of the normal tissue stem cell and CSC marker aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH1A1) (Douville et al, 2008;Huang et al, 2009;Vassalli, 2019), and by the neural crest stem cell (NCSC) zinc finger transcription factor and wound response gene EGR2 (KROX20) (Chavrier et al, 1990;Desmazie `res et al, 2009;Ghislain et al, 2003;Grose et al, 2002;Jang et al, 2010;Kim et al, 1998;Manzanares et al, 2002;Nonchev et al, 1996aNonchev et al, , 1996bSham et al, 1993;Topilko et al, 1994;Vesque et al, 1996).…”
