Molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the evolution of form and function in the amniote jaw [PDF]

EvoDevo, 2019
The amniote jaw complex is a remarkable amalgamation of derivatives from distinct embryonic cell lineages. During development, the cells in these lineages experience concerted movements, migrations, and signaling interactions that take them from their ...

Morphological evolution of the mammalian jaw adductor complex [PDF]

Biological Reviews of The Cambridge Philosophical Society, 2016
The evolution of the mammalian jaw during the transition from non‐mammalian synapsids to crown mammals is a key event in vertebrate history and characterised by the gradual reduction of its individual bones into a single element and the concomitant ...

Effect of standardized training in combination with masseter sensitization on corticomotor excitability in bruxer and control individuals: a proof of concept study

Scientific Reports, 2022
Recently, it has been proposed that bruxism could represent an overlearned behavior due to the absence of corticomotor plasticity following a relevant tooth-clenching task (TCT).
