Single Cell RNA Sequencing Reveals Critical Functions of Mkx in Periodontal Ligament Homeostasis

Single Cell RNA Sequencing Reveals Critical Functions of Mkx in Periodontal Ligament Homeostasis

The periodontal ligament (PDL) comprises a fibrous tissue that connects teeth to alveolar bone and is essential for periodontal function. The transcription factor mohawk homeobox (Mkx) is expressed in the PDL where it plays an important role in the development and maintenance of the PDL. However, th...
