Molecular basis of cranial suture biology and disease: Osteoblastic and osteoclastic perspectives

Abstract excerpt

The normal growth and development of the skull is a tightly regulated process that occurs along the osteogenic interfaces of the cranial sutures. Here, the borders of the calvarial bones and neighboring tissues above and below, function as a complex.
