Schematic view of CNCC‐CMMC interactions during jaw development . On the left, the migratory routes of the CNCCs (blue) during early head formation are shown. The right part of the diagram represents a frontal section of either a normal embryo (A), or an embryo in which CNCCs migration did not occur normally (B), as it might happen in hemifacial microsomia. During normal development CNCCs (blue) provide signals to the myogenic mesoderm (red) in order to induce its differentiation into masticatory muscles. See article by Heude et al. in this issue. Selected thumbnails of key figures of articles in this issue are placed along the margins of the table of contents.
