- •
We examined the effects of masticatory muscle imbalance on the morphogenesis of the condyle and localization of asporin and TGF-β1 in the condylar cartilage.
- •
We revealed the asporin localization in condylar cartilage.
- •
We revealed mineralization and architectural properties of the subchondral bone by microcomputed tomography.
