Frontal Bone Insufficiency in Gsk3β Mutant Mice
The development of the mammalian skull is a complex process that requires multiple tissue interactions and a balance of growth and differentiation. Disrupting this balance can lead to changes in the shape and size of skull bones, which can have serious clinical implications. For example, insufficient ossification of the bony elements leads to enlarged anterior fontanelles and reduced mechanical...
متن کاملDefective bone formation in Krox-20 mutant mice.
Endochondral ossification is the prevalent mode of vertebrate skeleton formation; it starts during embryogenesis when cartilage models of long bones develop central regions of hypertrophy which are replaced by bony trabeculae and bone marrow. Although several transcription factors have been implicated in pattern formation in the limbs and axial skeleton, little is known about the transcriptiona...
متن کاملDiabetes and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency in E2F1/E2F2 double-mutant mice.
E2F transcription factors are thought to be key regulators of cell growth control. Here we use mutant mouse strains to investigate the function of E2F1 and E2F2 in vivo. E2F1/E2F2 compound-mutant mice develop nonautoimmune insulin-deficient diabetes and exocrine pancreatic dysfunction characterized by endocrine and exocrine cell dysplasia, a reduction in the number and size of acini and islets,...
متن کاملPrenatal alcohol exposure alters p35, CDK5 and GSK3β in the medial frontal cortex and hippocampus of adolescent mice
Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs) are the number one cause of preventable mental retardation. An estimated 2-5% of children are diagnosed as having a FASD. While it is known that children prenatally exposed to alcohol experience cognitive deficits and a higher incidence of psychiatric illness later in life, the pathways underlying these abnormalities remain uncertain. GSK3β and CDK5 are ...
متن کاملTuberculous Frontal Bone Osteomyelitis
A 39 years old man presented with one month history of headache, nausea and vomiting, associated with night sweats without fever or impaired general condition. His past medical history was unremarkable. On admission, the patient was a febrile. A physical examination demonstrated a right frontal bulge which was painful, associated to fluctuation without inflammatory reaction around. A computed t...
