Abstract:
Craniofacial hard tissue mainly includes craniofacial bone and tooth, which is one of the important parts of the mouth-jaw system. Congenital aplasia, tumors and trauma can cause large craniofacial hard tissue defects, which are detrimental to the facial appearance and function of patients, and affect the physical and mental health of patients. Histone acetylation modification is the earliest and most widely studied histone modification, which is an epigenetic modification mechanism jointly regulated by histone acetyltransferase and histone deacetylase. In this paper, we will review the research progress of histone acetylation mediated by histone acetyltransferase and histone deacetylase in the development and regeneration of craniofacial hard tissue.
