This study uses a Col22a1-EGFP reporter to visualize and analyze the dynamic three-dimensional structure of the myotendinous junction across development and in response to mechanical stress.

The paper maps lineage trajectories and gene regulatory networks of cardiopharyngeal neural crest cells in mice, identifying a Hox-Meis-regulated transition associated with cardiac cushion development.

This study investigates the functional impact of pathogenic RHD mutations in Runx2 on skeletal and dental development in a mouse model of cleidocranial dysplasia.

This study investigates how sclerostin modulates mineralization and stiffness in fibrocartilaginous entheses to maintain mechanical integrity.

This study shows that Scx-positive tendon cells are essential for proper muscle attachment and patterning in mouse embryos, revealing a novel tissue-tissue interaction in musculoskeletal development.

The paper uses multimodal analysis to reveal cardiac neural crest lineage diversity and gene regulatory networks involved in their differentiation.
