Quadrate orientation and joint reaction force underwent correlated evolution during suchian evolution

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The quadrate is the cranial bone of the nonmammalian jaw joint. The quadrate has long been hypothesized to mirror the direction of joint reaction forces (JRF) during feeding. This study uses 3D biomechanical modeling to reveal a striking evolutionary link between quadrate orientation and JRF direction, unlocking new insights into the dynamic forces ...

Mapping the murine TMJ glenoid fossa over development, homeostasis and in response to disease

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The fibrocartilage of the murine glenoid fossa and condyle of the temporomandibular joint are shown to form at distinct times with distinct molecular identities. Changes in the condyle during disease lead to remodelling of the fossa to maintain joint alignment.
