As a kid, Samantha Brugmann, now a developmental biologist at the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, had a single Christmas wish: a science kit that came with a microscope and a bee. Using ...
Craniofacial abnormalities are some of the most common birth defects, ranging from cleft lips and palates to more severe disorders such as DiGeorge or Treacher-Collins syndromes. Craniofacial ...
Cleft lip and palate are the most common craniofacial birth defects in humans, affecting more than 175,000 newborns around the world each year. Yet despite decades of research, it’s still not known ...
The ZIC2 gene drives the migration of neural crest cells (in green) during early embryonic stages, a process essential for forming the vertebrate nervous system. An international team of researchers ...
PFDA, a PFAS “forever chemical,” can cause craniofacial birth defects by disrupting retinoic acid regulation during fetal ...
Top Image credit:Annita Achilleos and Paul Trainor, Stowers Institute for Medical Research Craniofacial anomalies are some of the most common birth defects and can severely impact individuals’ lives, ...
An international team of researchers has identified a key genetic mechanism that regulates the formation and migration of cranial neural crest cells, which are essential for developing facial ...
Inhibition of p53 rescues facial defects in a mouse model of an inherited craniofacial syndrome, Treacher Collins (pages 125–133). Craniofacial abnormalities comprise approximately one-third of all ...
Researchers have uncovered genetic elements that drive the rapid development of marsupials’ facial features. The study in fat-tailed dunnarts, native to Australia, is published today in eLife as the ...
