Embryonic cranial cartilage defects in the Fgfr3Y367C/+ mouse model of achondroplasia
Abstract Achondroplasia, the most common chondrodysplasia in humans, is caused by one of two gain of function mutations localized in the transmembrane domain of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) leading to constitutive activation of FGFR3 and subsequent growth plate cartilage and bone defects.

Surgical treatment of hand deformities in multiple enchondromatosis: a case report
Multiple enchondromatosis (Ollier’s disease) is a rare disease characterized by widespread enchondromas. In general, the short tubular bones of the hand are involved, with progressive lesions resulting in cosmetic problems and functional deformities ...

The Functions of the Multiproduct and Rapidly Evolving \u3cem\u3edec-1\u3c/em\u3e Eggshell Gene Are Conserved Between Evolutionarily Distant Species of Drosophila [PDF]
The Drosophila dec-1 gene encodes multiple proteins that are required for female fertility and proper eggshell morphogenesis. Genetic and immunolocalization data suggest that the different DEC-1 proteins are functionally distinct.

Our study suggests that exome sequencing adds approximately 60% of the diagnostic yield in fetuses with skeletal abnormalities reported in previous literature. The dysplasia phenotypes had a higher incremental yield, whereas the dysostoses group according to this study had a relatively lower yield, especially in the isolated dysostoses group.

ABSTRACT Here we describe a neonate exhibiting hypotonia, macrocephaly, renal cysts, and respiratory failure requiring tracheostomy and ventilator support. Genetic analysis via rapid genome sequencing (rGS) identified a loss on chromosome 4 encompassing polycystin‐2 (PKD2) and a loss on chromosome 22 encompassing SH3 and Multiple Ankyrin Repeat Domains

Correlation between prenatal ultrasound and postmortem findings in 1029 fetuses following termination of pregnancy [PDF]
Objective: A prenatal ultrasound examination and a postmortem examination provide the basis for correct diagnosis in fetuses terminated due to congenital anomalies. The aim of this study was to correlate fetal anomalies detected by ultrasound examination

The fibroblast growth factor receptors in breast cancer: From oncogenesis to better treatments [PDF]
Breast cancer (BC) is the most frequent form of malignancy and second only to lung cancer as cause of deaths in women. Notwithstanding many progresses made in the field, metastatic BC has a very poor prognosis. As therapies are becoming more personalized

ABSTRACT Objective This study aims to assess the diagnostic value of post‐mortem radiographic imaging compared with prenatal ultrasound in suspected fetal skeletal dysplasias in a large Finnish cohort. Method Prenatal ultrasound findings and their association with post‐mortem radiographic imaging were evaluated in a cohort of 36 fetuses with prenatally
