Abstract excerpt
The Fgf signalling pathway is highly conserved in evolution and plays crucial roles in development. In the craniofacial region, it is involved in almost all structure development from early patterning to growth regulation. In craniofacial skeletogenesis, the Fgf signal pathway plays important roles in suture and synchondrosis regulation. Mutations of FGF receptors relate to syndromatic and non-syndromatic...
