Objective: To explore the molecular mechanism of cleft palate induced by chemicals.
Methods: Retinoic acid was used as a known teratogen to induce cleft palate in ICR mice and a suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) technique was applied to identify differentially expressed genes that related to cleft palate of ICR mice.
Results: 14 reverse differently and 9 forward differentially expressed clones were obtained. Some clones were selected to be sequenced and aligned to GenBank.
Conclusion: In this study, suppressed Gpc3 and Insulin-Induced protein 1 could affect growth of palate shelves and resulted in cleft palate by reducing the size of the palate shelves. Down-regulation of Ptprs interfered with a cell signal pathway and down-regulation of Tn C inhibited the cell de-adhesion and expression of Egfr, then suppressed Egfr prevented the normal expression of MMPs that influenced the medial edge epithelium disruption and caused cleft palate. Tn C could bind to Ptprs and Gpcs, and HSPGs were ligands for Ptrps. Up-regulate of Rps25 might play a role in cleft palate by excessively apoptosis.

The surgical ciliated cyst is a newly added entity under the cysts of the jaws in the World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Head and Neck Tumours (2022). It is preceded by a prior surgery to the jaw many years before its diagnosis. A 53-year-old Chinese female, who had undergone cleft lip and palate repair followed by orthognathic surgery before the age of 20, was referred for management of an incidentally found cyst in the left maxilla.

Objective: The study compares and evaluates planned virtual outcomes with actual post-treatment outcomes to assess the accuracy and predictability of clinical results during presurgical infant orthopaedics (PSIO) with AlignerNAM in infants with unilateral cleft lip and palate.
Setting: Institutional study.
Participants: 14 UCLP patients.

2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is an important environmental pollutant that disturbs the immune balance of the maternal-fetal interface (MFI) and is also a common environmental factor for the formation of cleft palate (CP). Therefore, the purpose is to investigate whether TCDD can cause CP by disrupting the immune balance of the maternal-fetal interface. Fifteen C57BL/6J mice were randomly assigned to three groups: control group, TCDD group, and TCDD plus Freund's complete adjuvant (FCA) (TCDD + FCA) group.

Cleft lip and palate anomalies constitute both aesthetic and functional impairments for affected individuals. While an individual with an unrepaired cleft palate may adjust somewhat to the associated feeding challenges as he or she gets older, the consequent speech impairment is amenable primarily to surgery. It is pertinent to assess how well speech function is restored in individuals with cleft after surgical repairs.

To explore the application of modified Von Langenbeck cleft palate repair with tension-free mucoperiosteal flap near the nasal cavity and without relaxation incision, and the cleft palate defect was repaired by covering both sides of the edge of the in situ mucoperiosteal flap. This treatment method provides a good aesthetic restoration effect. Modified Von Langenbeck cleft palate repair with mucoperiosteal flap near the nasal cavity without tension and relaxation incision was used to repair the cleft palate.
