List of human cell types derived from the germ layers

This is a list of cells in humans derived from the three embryonic germ layers – ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. == Cells derived from the ectoderm == === Surface ectoderm === ==== Skin ==== Trichocyte Keratinocyte ==== Anterior pituitary ==== Gonadotrope Corticotrope Thyrotrope Somatotrope Lactotroph ==== Tooth enamel ==== Ameloblast === Neural crest === ==== Peripheral nervous system ==== Neuron Glia Schwann cell Satellite glial cell ==== Neuroendocrine system ==== Chromaffin cell Glomus cell ==== Skin ==== Melanocyte Nevus cell Merkel cell ==== Teeth ==== Odontoblast Cementoblast ==== Eyes ==== Corneal keratocyte ==== Smooth muscle ==== === Neural tube === ==== Central nervous system ==== Neuron Glia Astrocyte Ependymocytes Müller glia (retina) Oligodendrocyte Oligodendrocyte progenitor cell Pituicyte (posterior pituitary) ==== Pineal gland ==== Pinealocyte == Cells derived from the mesoderm == === Paraxial mesoderm === See main article on Paraxial mesoderm.
