Heart and craniofacial muscle development: a new developmental theme of distinct myogenic fields.

Developmental biology - 15 Mar 2009

Abstract excerpt

Head muscle development has been studied less intensively than myogenesis in the trunk, although this situation is gradually changing, as embryological and genetic insights accumulate. This review focuses on novel studies of the origins, composition and evolution of distinct craniofacial muscles. Cellular and molecular parallels are drawn between cardiac and branchiomeric muscle developmental programs, both of...
