| Name: | VaP motor neuron |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | variable primary motoneuron |
| Definition: | A primary motor neuron of the spinal cord. This cell is present in slightly less than half of the trunk hemisegments. Additionally, this cell has at least 2 different fates: it may become a primary motoneuron and arborize in an exclusive muscle territory, or it may die during embryonic development. |

| Name: | muscle pioneer |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | muscle pioneers, non migratory adaxial cells |
| Definition: | Cells that develop from adaxial cells that express engrailed and do not migrate completely to the lateral surface of the myotome, and instead extend from the notochord to the lateral surface of the somite, at the level of the future horizontal myoseptum. |
