Characterization of deletions in a cohort with cleft lip and palate

TL;DR: This cohort helps to support previous literature describing patients with orofacial clefts and microdeletions, along with presenting rarer associations, including an individual with a 12q21.1 deletion and cardiofaciocutaneous-like phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Communication and cognition profiles in parents of children with nonsyndromic cleft lip and/or palate.

TL;DR: Having significantly fewer years of schooling in the P-CLP group could be suggestive of an increased risk of communication and cognitive difficulties these parents face, and the potential difficulties their children with CLP may encounter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Normal emotion regulation in adults with cleft lip and palate: an exploratory study.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that individuals with an orofacial cleft show undisturbed emotion regulation and recognition, which may be explained by the strong biological basis of facial emotion recognition and regulation as well as by the healthy emotional resilience and social functioning of CLP patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyhydramnios in isolated oral cleft pregnancies: incidence and outcome in a retrospective study

TL;DR: The incidence and outcome of idiopathic polyhydramnios in isolated OC pregnancies is assessed and it is suggested to be associated with oral clefts (OCs) due to swallowing problems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Maternal exposure to sulfur dioxide and the risk of oral clefts in Liaoning Province, China: a population-based case-control study.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors performed a population-based case-control study in Liaoning province to evaluate the relationship during 3 months before conception, the first trimester of pregnancy, and their single months.

Retinoic Acid Embryopathy

TL;DR: It is possible that a major mechanism of isotretinoin teratogenesis is a deleterious effect on cephalic neural-crest cell activity that results in the observed craniofacial, cardiac, and thymic malformations.

Apaf1 (CED-4 homolog) regulates programmed cell death in mammalian development.

TL;DR: It is suggested that Apaf1 is essential for Casp3 activation in embryonic brain and is a key regulator of developmental programmed cell death in mammals.

Transforming growth factor-β3 is required for secondary palate fusion

TL;DR: This result demonstrates that TGF–β3 affects palatal shelf fusion by an intrinsic, primary mechanism rather than by effects secondary to craniofacial defects.
