Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Major cell-to-cell signaling pathways, such as the fibroblast growth factors and their four receptors (FGF/FGFR), are conserved across a variety of animal forms. FGF/FGFRs are necessary to produce several "vertebrate-specific" structures, including the vertebrate head. Here, we examine the effects of the FGFR2 S252W mutation associated with Apert syndrome on patterns of cranial integration. Our data...
