Abstract excerpt
Orofacial clefts (OFCs) are the most common congenital craniofacial disorders and cause serious problems with the appearance, orofacial function and mental health of the patients. The fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling pathway is critical for several aspects of craniofacial development and loss-of-function mutations of coding genes for multiple FGFs and FGFRs can lead to OFCs. We recently characterized...
