The Skull’s Girder: A Brief Review of the Cranial Base
Journal of Developmental Biology, 2021 The cranial base is a multifunctional bony platform within the core of the cranium, spanning rostral to caudal ends. This structure provides support for the brain and skull vault above, serves as a link between the head and the vertebral column below ...

Relationship between bridging and dimensions of sella turcica with classification of craniofacial skeleton [PDF]
, 2018 Purpose: In orthodontics, it is essential to determine the craniofacial skeleton pattern (class I, II, III) for planning treatment. Sella turcica bridging that is seen on lateral cephalometric radiographs is considered as a normal finding.

A review of genetics of nasal development and morphological variation
Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2020 The nose is central in the determination of facial esthetics. The variations in its structural characteristics greatly influence the ultimate dentoskeletal positioning at the end of an orthodontic therapy.

Predictability of hand skill and cognitive abilities from craniofacial width in right- and left-handed men and women: relation of skeletal structure to cerebral function [PDF]
, 2002 Recently, a family of homeobox genes involved in brain and craniofacial development was identified. In light of this genetic background, we hypothesized that some functional characteristics of human brain (hand skill, cognition) may be linked to some ...

Loss of Wiz Function Affects Methylation Pattern in Palate Development and Leads to Cleft Palate
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 WIZ (Widely Interspaced Zinc Finger) is associated with the G9a-GLP protein complex, a key H3K9 methyltransferase suggesting a role in transcriptional repression. However, its role in embryonic development is poorly described. In order to assess the loss
