The authors have analysed the growth of the craniofacial parameters zygion-zygion, eurvon-eurvon, glabella-opisthocranion, nasion-gnathion and nasion-prosthion with examinees aged 5 to 13 years with normal occlusion and malocclusion. No statistically significant differences in the growth of the analysed parameters in regard to the constancy or change of the examinee's orthodontic diagnosis in the period of mixed dentition have been found.

PRMT1-methylated MSX1 phase separates to control palate development.

Nat Commun

January 2025

State Key Laboratory Cultivation Base of Research, Prevention and Treatment for Oral Diseases, Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, China.

Little is known about the regulation and function of phase separation in craniofacial developmental disorders. MSX1 mutations are associated with human cleft palate, the most common craniofacial birth defect. Here, we show that MSX1 phase separation is a vertebrate-conserved mechanism underlying embryonic palatal fusion.

FGFR antagonists restore defective mandibular bone repair in a mouse model of osteochondrodysplasia.

Bone Res

January 2025

Université de Paris Cité, Imagine Institute, Laboratory of Molecular and Physiopathological Bases of Osteochondrodysplasia, INSERM UMR 1163, Paris, France.

Gain-of-function mutations in fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) genes lead to chondrodysplasia and craniosynostoses. FGFR signaling has a key role in the formation and repair of the craniofacial skeleton. Here, we analyzed the impact of Fgfr2- and Fgfr3-activating mutations on mandibular bone formation and endochondral bone repair after non-stabilized mandibular fractures in mouse models of Crouzon syndrome (Crz) and hypochondroplasia (Hch).

Anterior-posterior (A-P) elongation of the palate is a critical aspect of integrated midfacial morphogenesis. Reciprocal epithelial-mesenchymal interactions drive secondary palate elongation that is coupled to the periodic formation of signaling centers within the rugae growth zone (RGZ). However, the relationship between RGZ-driven morphogenetic processes, the differentiative dynamics of underlying palatal bone mesenchymal precursors, and the segmental organization of the upper jaw has remained enigmatic.

Craniosynostosis, a condition marked by the premature fusion of one or more cranial sutures, exhibits diverse phenotypes. This study aims to advance the understanding of these phenotypes beyond the conventional 2-dimensional analysis by focusing on identifying indicators of increased intracranial pressure (ICP) such as bony thinning or irregularities in skull morphology. A retrospective review was conducted for all pediatric patients with midline craniosynostosis who presented to our tertiary academic center for evaluation.

Optimal age for mandibular distraction osteogenesis in craniofacial microsomia: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

J Stomatol Oral Maxillofac Surg

January 2025

Department of Maxillofacial Surgery, Plastic Surgery Hospital and Institute, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Peking Union Medical College. No. 33, Ba-Da-Chu Rd, Shi Jing Shan District, Beijing 100144, PR China. Electronic address:

Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the optimal timing for mandibular distraction osteogenesis in children with craniofacial microsomia based on long-term outcomes and relapse rates.

Methods: A comprehensive search of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science was conducted for studies published up to September 2024. Eligible studies included children aged ≤16 years with CFM who underwent MDO, with follow-up duration exceeding one year.
