Ectopic Thymic Tissue Presenting as an Epiglottic Mass Compromising a Neonatal Airway: A Case Report.
Cureus
December 2024
Division of Otolaryngology, Department of Surgery, Nemours Children's Health System, Wilmington, USA.
An epiglottic mass (EM) is rarely found in neonates and poses life-threatening airway complications. We present the case of an infant urgently transferred from Belize via the World Pediatric Project with a lingual EM. The EM was misdiagnosed twice.

Purpose: To perform vertical bone augmentation on rat parietal bone by coating the inner surface of dense polytetrafluoroethylene (d-PTFE) domes with hydroxyapatite (HA) using Erbium Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (Er:YAG) pulsed laser deposition in a rat model.
Methods: The d-PTFE plate surface, α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) coating, and HA coating were measured using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction to confirm the replacement of α-TCP with HA via high-pressure steam sterilization. The dome was glued to the center of the rat parietal bone and closed with periosteal and epithelial sutures.
Twist1 Acts Upstream of the Dlx5-Hand2 Pathway to Pattern the Mammalian Jaw.

Division of Developmental Biology, Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.
Both the upper and lower jaws develop from cranial neural crest cells (CNCCs) populating the first pharyngeal arch in all gnathostomes. Previous studies showed that the Edn1/Ednra-Dlx5/Dlx6-Hand2 signaling pathway is necessary for lower jaw formation and that ectopic expression of or throughout the CNCCs partly transformed the upper jaw to lower jaw structures, but the molecular mechanisms regulating upper jaw development remain unclear. Here we show that the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor Twist1 is required for upper jaw development.

The repair of large cartilage defects remains highly challenging in the fields of orthopedics and oral and maxillofacial surgery. A chondroinductive agent is promising to activate endogenous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) so as to facilitate cartilage regeneration. In this study, we analyze the crystallographic data of the critical binding domain of transforming growth factor β3 (TGF-β3) with its type II receptor and successfully develop a novel chondroinductive peptide - TGF-β3-derived peptide No.

Matrix Gla protein (MGP) is a vitamin K-dependent γ-carboxylated protein that was initially identified as a physiological inhibitor of ectopic calcification, primarily affecting cartilage and the vascular system. Mutations in the gene were found to be responsible for the Keutel syndrome, a condition characterized by abnormal calcifications in the cartilage, lungs, brain, and vascular system. has been shown to be dysregulated in several tumors, including cervical, ovarian, urogenital, and breast cancers.
