Rapid disappearance of the medial epithelial seam during palatal fusion occurs by multifocal breakdown that is preceded by expression of alpha smooth muscle actin in the epithelium by Gibbins, J R, Brent, S, Srivastava, M, Garibotto, N, Tazawa, Y M, Cameron, A, Hunter, N

“…Breakdown of the medial epithelial seam (MES) is essential to allow bridging of the mesenchyme during palatal fusion. Evidence exists for three mechanisms for…”
