A molecular analysis of matrix remodeling and angiogenesis during long bone developmentC I Colnot
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, University of California at San Francisco, CA 94143 0514, USA
Mech Dev 100:245-50. 2001..Here, we have produced a 'molecular map' of the initial vascularization of the developing skeleton that provides a framework in which to interpret a wide range of fetal skeletal malformations, disruptions, and dysplasias...
Sonic hedgehog participates in craniofacial morphogenesis and is down-regulated by teratogenic doses of retinoic acidJ A Helms

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of California at San Francisco, 533 Parnassus Ave, San Francisco, USA
Mech Dev 87:57-66. 1999..Taken together, these data suggest the genetic mechanisms regulating fetal skeletogenesis also regulate adult skeletal regeneration, and point to important regulators of angiogenesis and ossification in bone regeneration...
Local retinoid signaling coordinates forebrain and facial morphogenesis by maintaining FGF8 and SHHR A Schneider
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, 533 Parnassus Avenue, Suite U-453, University of California at San Francisco, San Francisco, CA 94143-0514, USA
Development 128:2755-67. 2001..We propose that the local source of retinoic acid in the rostral head initiates a regulatory cascade that coordinates forebrain and frontonasal process morphogenesis...

Emory University School of Medicine, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, and Atlanta Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Decatur, Georgia 30033, USA
Endocrinology 139:5125-34. 1998..These data demonstrate that LMP-1 is an essential positive regulator of the osteoblast differentiation program as well as an important intermediate step in the BMP-6 signaling pathway...
Cellular and molecular characterization of a murine non-union modelP Choi
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of California at San Francisco, 533 Parnassus Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94143-0514, USA
J Orthop Res 22:1100-7. 2004..These delays in skeletal tissue regeneration appear to develop even in the presence of endothelial cells, which suggests that mechanisms other than a disruption to the vascular network can account for some cases of non-union...
