Growth of the normal skull vault and its alteration in craniosynostosis: insights from human genetics and experimental studies.
The mammalian skull vault is constructed principally from five bones: the paired frontals and parietals, and the unpaired interparietal. These bones abut at sutures, where most growth of the skull vault takes place. Sutural growth involves maintenance of a population of proliferating osteoprogenitor...
