摘要
1820年，德国解剖学家约翰·弗里德里希·梅克尔（Johann Friedrich Meckel the Younger）通过对人类胚胎的检查，首次描绘了梅克尔软骨（MC）。在早期发育过程中，MC作为下颌骨的支撑结构，并作为随后颌骨形成的模板。最终，MC转化为骨组织、韧带或完全吸收，与不断发育的骨结构结合。本文综述了MC发育和退化对下颌形态发生的影响，描述了决定软骨形成命运的细胞过程和关键因素。分析揭示了MC的改变如何影响下颌和颅面发育。作为一种短暂的软骨结构，MC的研究可以为理解口腔和颅颌面病理提供有价值的见解。
[Advances in mechanisms of Meckel's cartilage development and degeneration].
Meckel's cartilage (MC) was first delineated in 1820 by the German anatomist Johann Friedrich Meckel the Younger through his examination of human embryos. During early development, MC functions as a supportive structure for the mandible and serves as a template for the subsequent formation of the jaw bones. Ultimately, MC transforms into either skeletal tissue, ligaments, or completely resorbs, integrating with the continuously developing osseous structures. This review elucidates the influence of MC development and degeneration on mandibular morphogenesis, delineating cellular processes and key factors that govern chondrogenic fate determination. The analysis reveals how the alterations of MC affect mandibular and craniofacial development. As a transient cartilaginous structure, investigation into MC may yield valuable insights for understanding oral and craniomaxillofacial pathologies.
期刊介绍：
Founded in August 1953, Chinese Journal of Stomatology is a monthly academic journal of stomatology published publicly at home and abroad, sponsored by the Chinese Medical Association and co-sponsored by the Chinese Stomatology Association. It mainly reports the leading scientific research results and clinical diagnosis and treatment experience in the field of oral medicine, as well as the basic theoretical research that has a guiding role in oral clinical practice and is closely combined with oral clinical practice.
Chinese Journal of Over the years, Stomatology has been published in Medline, Scopus database, Toxicology Abstracts Database, Chemical Abstracts Database, American Cancer database, Russian Abstracts database, China Core Journal of Science and Technology, Peking University Core Journal, CSCD and other more than 20 important journals at home and abroad Physical medicine database and retrieval system included.
