Exploring the Intricate Links between Adenotonsillar Hypertrophy, Mouth Breathing, and Craniofacial Development in Children with Sleep-Disordered Breathing: Unraveling the Vicious Cycle. [PDF]
Adenotonsillar hypertrophy has been well-acknowledged as the primary instigator of sleep-disordered breathing in the pediatric population. This condition spans a spectrum, from typical age-related growth that the immune system influences to persistent ...

Sonic hedgehog signaling in craniofacial development. [PDF]
Mutations in SHH and several other genes encoding components of the Hedgehog signaling pathway have been associated with holoprosencephaly syndromes, with craniofacial anomalies ranging in severity from cyclopia to facial cleft to midfacial and mandibular hypoplasia.

Fine-tuning of Wnt signaling by RNA surveillance factor Smg5 in the mouse craniofacial development. [PDF]
Summary: The specific roles of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), a translation-dependent RNA quality control mechanism that degrades mRNAs containing premature termination codons (PTCs), in mammalian craniofacial development have remained unclear. Here,

Dynamic enhancer landscapes in human craniofacial development. [PDF]
The genetic basis of human facial variation and craniofacial birth defects remains poorly understood. Distant-acting transcriptional enhancers control the fine-tuned spatiotemporal expression of genes during critical stages of craniofacial development ...

Transforming growth factor beta signaling and craniofacial development: modeling human diseases in zebrafish. [PDF]
Humans and other jawed vertebrates rely heavily on their craniofacial skeleton for eating, breathing, and communicating. As such, it is vital that the elements of the craniofacial skeleton develop properly during embryogenesis to ensure a high quality of

Integrative analysis of transcriptome dynamics during human craniofacial development identifies candidate disease genes. [PDF]
Craniofacial disorders arise in early pregnancy and are one of the most common congenital defects. To fully understand how craniofacial disorders arise, it is essential to characterize gene expression during the patterning of the craniofacial region.

Npp1 prevents external tooth root resorption by regulation of cervical cementum integrity
Tooth roots embedded in the alveolar bone do not typically undergo resorption while the bone continues remodeling in its physiological state.

RAB23 coordinates early osteogenesis by repressing FGF10-pERK1/2 and GLI1
Mutations in the gene encoding Ras-associated binding protein 23 (RAB23) cause Carpenter Syndrome, which is characterized by multiple developmental abnormalities including polysyndactyly and defects in skull morphogenesis.
