Q&A: Morphological insights into evolution
BMC Biology, 2017 In this question and answer article we discuss how evolution shapes morphology (the shape and pattern of our bodies) but also how learning about morphology, and specifically how that morphology arises during development, can shed light on mechanisms that

egfl6 expression in the pharyngeal pouch is dispensable for craniofacial development
Animal Cells and Systems, 2021 Epidermal growth factor-like domain multiple 6 (Egfl6) is a basement membrane protein and plays an important role in hair follicle morphogenesis, angiogenesis, notochord development in vertebrates.

Postnatal Craniofacial Skeletal Development of Female C57BL/6NCrl Mice
Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 The craniofacial skeleton is a complex and unique structure. The perturbation of its development can lead to craniofacial dysmorphology and associated morbidities.

The ribosome biogenesis factor Nol11 is required for optimal rDNA transcription and craniofacial development in Xenopus. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2015 The production of ribosomes is ubiquitous and fundamental to life. As such, it is surprising that defects in ribosome biogenesis underlie a growing number of symptomatically distinct inherited disorders, collectively called ribosomopathies. We previously

A Reciprocal Interaction between β-Catenin and Osterix in Cementogenesis
Scientific Reports, 2017 Although accumulating evidence indicates that both β-catenin and osterix (Osx) are essential for bone and tooth development, few studies have investigated the interaction of these two key proteins in the context of cementogenesis.

Dchs1–Fat4 regulation of polarized cell behaviours during skeletal morphogenesis
Nature Communications, 2016 How the shape of the sternum is regulated is unclear. Here, the authors identify the Dchs1-Fat4-planar cell polarity pathway as controlling cell orientation and cell intercalation of mesenchymal cells that form skeletal condensations for the mouse ...

Gene expression profiling in the developing secondary palate in the absence of Tbx1 function
BMC Genomics, 2018 Background Microdeletion of chromosome 22q11 is associated with significant developmental anomalies, including disruption of the cardiac outflow tract, thymic/parathyroid aplasia and cleft palate.

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023 Pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (POSA) is a complex disease with multifactorial etiopathogenesis. The presence of craniofacial dysmorphisms influencing the patency of the upper airway is considered a risk factor for POSA development.

High-Resolution Epigenomic Atlas of Human Embryonic Craniofacial Development
Cell Reports, 2018 Summary: Defects in patterning during human embryonic development frequently result in craniofacial abnormalities. The gene regulatory programs that build the craniofacial complex are likely controlled by information located between genes and within ...
