Let me get this straight, according to First Aid, Parathyroid is derived from Endoderm, whereas the parafollicular C-Cells of the thyroid is from Neural crest.
But is there a component of parathyroid that is from the neural crest as well? Because I thought that in Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia (MEN), the one common thing that all of the neoplasias share is that they are from the neural crest cells, and hence, shouldn't parathyroid be from neural crest cells as well?
