MLL4 regulates postnatal palate growth and midpalatal suture development [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental BiologyMLL4, also known as KMT2D, is a histone methyltransferase that acts as an important epigenetic regulator in various organogenesis programs. Mutations in the MLL4 gene are the major cause of Kabuki syndrome, a human developmental disorder that involves ...

Midpalatal Suture Maturation Method for the Assessment of Maturation before Maxillary Expansion: A Systematic Review [PDF]
Diagnostics, 2022 Assessment of midpalatal suture maturation is crucial before deciding which type of maxillary expansion technique will be performed to treat transverse discrepancies. In 2013, Angelieri et al. proposed a new method to evaluate midpalatal maturation using

Midpalatal Suture Maturation in Relation to Age, Sex, and Facial Skeletal Growth Patterns: A CBCT Study [PDF]
ChildrenBackground. The evaluation of midpalatal suture maturation is essential to undertake the most predictable maxillary expansion approach. Several factors, such as age, gender, and facial growth patterns, seem to be involved in midpalatal suture staging and,
