Abstract During craniofacial development, cranial neural crest (CNC) cells migrate into the developing face and form bone through intramembranous ossification. Loss of JAGGED1 (JAG1) signaling in CNC is associated with maxillary hypoplasia or deficiency (MBD) mice recapitulates MBD seen humans Alagille syndrome. JAGGED1, a membrane-bound NOTCH ligand, required for normal Jagged1 mutations are known to cause Syndrome, which cardiac, biliary, phenotypes these children experience increased bony...
