The role of Rho GTPases in facial morphogenesis
The role of small GTPases, RHOA, RAC1, and CDC42 and pathway mediators is reviewed in the context of embryonic facial development. Lip fusion requires cytoskeletal remodeling during morphogenesis of the facial processes and during lip fusion. Fnm, frontonasal mass; lnp, lateral nasal process; mnp, medial nasal process; mxp, maxillary process; np, nasal

ABSTRACT Background The loss of the Y chromosome (LOY) and the extreme down‐regulation of Y chromosome gene expression (EDY) are frequently observed in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, their roles in oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) are unclear.

Introduction Leukoplakia and oral lichen planus (OLP) are common diseases manifesting as white lesions that are considered potentially malignant disorders (PMD). Epithelial dysplasia may be an early sign of potency for the future transformation into oral

Grading of oral epithelial dysplasia: Points to ponder
Over the years many grading systems have been put forward in an attempt to obtain objectivity in grading oral epithelial dysplasia (OED). However, despite these efforts variability remains unresolved. Our study aimed to evaluate the intra- and inter-observer variability in grading OED, using World Health Organization (WHO), Smith and Pindborg and ...

What's New? While colonic mucosa lymphocytes have been quantified in the context of inflammatory diseases, T‐cells in non‐tumor mucosa adjacent to colorectal cancer remain understudied. This study found that in stage IV colorectal cancer (synchronous liver metastasis), higher Foxp3+ T‐cell density and Foxp3+/CD4+ and Foxp3+/CD8+ T‐cell ratios in non ...

Juvenile polyposis in a SMAD4‐mutated child: A call for early surveillance
Abstract We report the case of a 10‐year‐old boy with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) and a family history of SMAD4‐related juvenile polyposis syndrome (JPS), presenting with hypoferritinaemia unresponsive to oral supplementation. Endoscopic evaluation revealed multiple gastrointestinal polyps, including duodenal, gastric, and colonic ...
