Come together over me: Cells that form the dermatocranium and chondrocranium in mice
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Most bone develops either by intramembranous ossification where bone forms within a soft connective tissue, or by endochondral ossification by way of a cartilage anlagen or model. Bones of the skull can form endochondrally or intramembranously or represent a combination of the two types of ossification.
