The neural crest hypothesis posits that selection for tameness resulted in mild alterations to neural crest cells during embryonic development, which directly or indirectly caused the appearance of traits associated with the “domestication syndrome” (DS).

Waardenburg syndrome type 1 (WS1), a rare genetic disease characterized by pigmentation defects and mild craniofacial anomalies often associated with congenital deafness is caused by heterozygous mutations in the PAX3 gene (2q36.1). We have generated two

Aebp2 as an epigenetic regulator for neural crest cells. [PDF]
Aebp2 is a potential targeting protein for the mammalian Polycomb Repression Complex 2 (PRC2). We generated a mutant mouse line disrupting the transcription of Aebp2 to investigate its in vivo roles.

Small lymphocytic lymphoma in a patient with CREST syndrome
We report a case of a 61-year-old man with a history of CREST syndrome (calcinosis cutis, Raynaud phenomenon, esophageal dysmotility, sclerodactyly, and telangiectasia) who presented for evaluation of thrombocytopenia.

Down syndrome (DS) is the most common chromosomal abnormality in live-born infants and is caused by trisomy of chromosome 21. Most individuals with DS display craniofacial dysmorphology, including reduced sizes of the skull, maxilla, and mandible ...

Primary biliary cirrhosis and CREST syndrome [PDF]
A 54-year-old woman suffering from Raynaud’s phenomenon for many years. She had noticed a gradual disappearanceof the skin folds of her face and a lack of ability to open her mouth. Her limbs showed sclerodactyly and isolated telan-giectases (Fig. 1a). She had positive anticentromere antibody.She was evaluated because of dysphagia with solids, pyrosis ...

Pax7 lineage contributions to the mammalian neural crest.
BackgroundNeural crest cells are vertebrate-specific multipotent cells that contribute to a variety of tissues including the peripheral nervous system, melanocytes, and craniofacial bones and cartilage.

Sporadic hemiplegic migraine and CREST syndrome [PDF]
Hemiplegic migraines are characterised by attacks of migraine with aura accompanied by transient motor weakness. There are both familial and sporadic subtypes, which are now recognised as separate entities by the International Classification of Headache Disorders, edition II (ICHD-II).

The emerging roles of ribosome biogenesis in craniofacial development
Neural crest cells are a transient, migratory cell population, which originates during neurulation at the neural folds and contributes to the majority of tissues, including the mesenchymal structures of the craniofacial skeleton.

Anesthetic management of Shah-Waardenburg syndrome: Experience of two cases and review of literature
Waardenburg syndrome (WS) is a rare autosomally inherited and genetically heterogeneous disorder of neural crest cell development. Literature regarding the anesthetic management of these cases is limited.
