Pubertal presentation in seven patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to P450 Oxidoreductase deficiency [PDF]
Context: P450 oxidoreductase (POR) is a crucial electron donor to all microsomal P450 cytochrome (CYP) enzymes including 17α-hydroxylase (CYP17A1), 21-hydroxylase (CYP21A2) and P450 aromatase.

Cervical vertebrae fusion in elbow knee synostosis (Eks)-mutant mice with fibroblast growth factor 9 N143T mutation. [PDF]
Abstract Proper vertebral column development requires precise segmentation and regulated chondrogenesis during embryogenesis. Mutations affecting fibroblast growth factor 9 (FGF9) signaling disrupt these processes, resulting in abnormal vertebral column development.

Differential expression of extracellular matrix-mediated pathways in single-suture craniosynostosis. [PDF]
Craniosynostosis is a disease defined by premature fusion of one or more cranial sutures. The mechanistic pathology of single-suture craniosynostosis is complex and while a number of genetic biomarkers and environmental predispositions have been ...

Fluctuating dental asymmetry in rabbits with familial nonsyndromic coronal suture synostosis
Fluctuating dental asymmetry has been linked to conditions of unstable pre- and peri-natal development. Familial, nonsyndromic craniosynostosis disrupts early craniofacial development through localized excessive calvarial ossification leading to the ...

Apert syndrome (AS) is characterized by synostosis of coronal sutures, midfacial hypoplasia,abnormity of brain, syndactyly of hands and feet. Majority of AS is caused by gain-of-function mutation of fibro‐blast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2).

Introduction: Sagittal synostosis is a rare congenital disease caused by the premature fusion of the sagittal suture. Craniosynostosis occurs for a variety of reasons, different for every case, and often the etiology is unclear but the anomaly can ...

A child with Roberts syndrome presenting severe craniofacial anomaly
Roberts syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly which was described by John Roberts in 1919, also known as pseudothalidomidic or phocomelia. Characterized by skeletal deformities, in particular symmetric reduction of the extremities and craniofacial ...

Treatment timing and multidisciplinary approach in Apert syndrome [PDF]
Apert syndrome is a rare congenital disorder characterized by craniosynostosis, midface hypoplasia and symmetric syndactyly of hands and feet. Abnormalities associated with Apert syndrome include premature fusion of coronal sutures system (coronal ...

Apparently synonymous substitutions in FGFR2 affect splicing and result in mild Crouzon syndrome [PDF]
Background: Mutations of fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) account for a higher proportion of genetic cases of craniosynostosis than any other gene, and are associated with a wide spectrum of severity of clinical problems.
