Stimulating Factors and Origins of Precursor Cells in Traumatic Heterotopic Ossification Around the Temporomandibular Joint in Mice

Stimulating Factors and Origins of Precursor Cells in Traumatic Heterotopic Ossification Around the Temporomandibular Joint in Mice

The contributing factors and the origins of precursor cells in traumatic heterotopic ossification around the temporomandibular joint (THO-TMJ), which causes obvious restriction of mouth opening and maxillofacial malformation, remain unclear. In this study, our findings demonstrated that injured chon...
