Journal ArticleDOI
Runx2 and Runx3 are essential for chondrocyte maturation, and Runx2 regulates limb growth through induction of Indian hedgehog
Carolina A. Yoshida,Hiromitsu Yamamoto,Takashi Fujita,Tatsuya Furuichi,Kosei Ito,Ken-ichi Inoue,Kei Yamana,Akira Zanma,Kenji Takada,Yoshiaki Ito,Toshihisa Komori +10 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the involvement of Runx3 in chondrocyte differentiation by generating Runx2-and-Runx3-deficient (Runx2(-/-)3(-/-)) mice found that chondrospermia differentiation was inhibited depending on the dosages of Run x2 and Runx4, and Run x3- deficient mice showed a complete absence of chond rocyte maturation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Skeletal Malformations Caused by Overexpression of Cbfa1 or Its Dominant Negative Form in Chondrocytes
Chisato Ueta,Masahiro Iwamoto,Naoko Kanatani,Carolina A. Yoshida,Yang Liu,Motomi Enomoto-Iwamoto,Tomoharu Ohmori,Hirayuki Enomoto,Ken Nakata,Kenji Takada,Kojiro Kurisu,Toshihisa Komori +11 more
TL;DR: Data show that temporally and spatially regulated expression of Cbfa1 in chondrocytes is required for skeletogenesis, including formation of joints, permanent cartilages, and endochondral bones.
Journal ArticleDOI
Core-binding factor beta interacts with Runx2 and is required for skeletal development.
Carolina A. Yoshida,Tatsuya Furuichi,Takashi Fujita,Ryo Fukuyama,Ryo Fukuyama,Naoko Kanatani,Shinji Kobayashi,Masanobu Satake,Kenji Takada,Toshihisa Komori +9 more
TL;DR: Electrophoretic mobility shift assays and reporter assays showed that Cbfβ was necessary for the efficient DNA binding of Runx2 and for Runx 2-dependent transcriptional activation, which indicates that CBFβ is required for the function of RunX2 in skeletal development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Facial Asymmetry in Subjects with Skeletal Class III Deformity
TL;DR: In this paper, the frequency, site, amount, and direction of facial asymmetry in human adults with mandibular prognathism were investigated and the characteristics were associated postnatally with cardinal clinical signs that may indicate a predisposition to facial asymmetric.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in dentofacial morphology in skeletal Class III children treated by a modified maxillary protraction headgear and a chin cup: a longitudinal cephalometric appraisal.
TL;DR: The results suggest possible orthopaedic effects of the MPH on dentofacial morphology in young females when it is applied before or during acceleration of the pubertal growth spurt.
