Bones, Glands, Ears and More: The Multiple Roles of FGF10 in Craniofacial Development
Members of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family have myriad functions during development of both non-vertebrate and vertebrate organisms. One of these family members, FGF10, is largely expressed in mesenchymal tissues and is essential for postnatal ...

Enhancing the Intelligibility of Cleft Lip and Palate Speech using Cycle-consistent Adversarial Networks [PDF]
Cleft lip and palate (CLP) refer to a congenital craniofacial condition that causes various speech-related disorders. As a result of structural and functional deformities, the affected subjects' speech intelligibility is significantly degraded, limiting the accessibility and usability of speech-controlled devices. Towards addressing this problem, it is

Intraoral Drug Delivery: Bridging the Gap Between Academic Research and Industrial Innovations
Intraoral drug delivery offers a promising route for systemic and localized therapies, yet challenges such as enzymatic degradation, limited permeability, and microbial interactions hinder efficacy. This figure highlights innovative strategies—mucoadhesive materials, enzyme inhibitors, and permeation enhancers—to overcome these barriers.

Liquid Crystalline Networks Hamper the Malignancy of Cancer Cells
Liquid Crystalline Networks are used as scaffolds for the growth of A375 melanoma cells demonstrating to affect their malignancy. Indeed, only by contact, these materials reduces cell proliferation and colony formation capacity, while increasing the number of senescent cells and promoting the mesenchymal to epithelial transition.

Influence of Utterance and Speaker Characteristics on the Classification of Children with Cleft Lip and Palate [PDF]
Recent findings show that pre-trained wav2vec 2.0 models are reliable feature extractors for various speaker characteristics classification tasks. We show that latent representations extracted at different layers of a pre-trained wav2vec 2.0 system can be used as features for binary classification to distinguish between children with Cleft Lip and ...
