Stem cells of the suture mesenchyme in craniofacial bone development, repair and regeneration
The suture mesenchyme has been postulated to act as the niche for stem cells for calvarial bones but the identity of the stem cells is unknown. Here, Maruyama et al.suggest that Axin2 expressing cells act as stem cells not only in craniofacial bone development and homeostasis but in injury-induced r...
