First author Dr. Julie Yue Yuan showed MMP9 inhibition acted on inflammatory cells to promote a more effective migratory response of muscle stem cells, resulting in improved muscle repair in telomerase mutants.

This review highlights emerging research that has located progenitor cells in and around the superficial layers of the condyle of the TMJ that can contribute to growth and homeostasis, providing potential targets for regenerative therapies.

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a crucial part of our daily lives, playing a role in mastication and communication. Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) are highly prevalent ( 34%-38% of world population), but therapies are challenging due to the limited self-repair capability of the TMJ.
