Differential regulation of SHH signaling and the developmental control of species-specific jaw size through neural crest-mediated Gas1 expression
2021-12-18
Abstract excerpt
Developmental control of jaw size is crucial to prevent disease and facilitate evolution. We have shown that species-specific differences in jaw size are established by neural crest mesenchyme (NCM), which are the jaw progenitors that migrate into the mandibular primordia. NCM relies on multiple signaling molecules including Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) to mediate interactions with mandibular epithelium that facilitate ou...
