cellular

enhanced osteoblast differentiation ( J:98523 )

• enhanced osteoblast differentiation predominantly in the anterior calvarium

abnormal osteoblast physiology ( J:98523 )

• primary calvarial osteoblasts isolated from nasal/frontal bones exhibited enhanced formation of mineralized nodules when induced to differentiate

increased osteoblast proliferation ( J:98523 )

• enhanced proliferation of osteoblast precursors in the developing metopic suture and of isolated primary osteoblasts from nasal/frontal bones (cranial neural crest derived) but not from parietal bones (mesoderm-derived)

craniofacial

abnormal cranium morphology ( J:98523 )

• adult skulls became abnormally structured and shaped due to premature suture closure

absent jugum limitans ( J:98523 )

• the jugum limitans is often missing

decreased cranium height ( J:98523 )

abnormal neurocranium morphology ( J:98523 )

• enhanced osteoblast differentiation predominantly in the anterior calvarium

shortened head ( J:98523 )

• reduced growth of the head, obvious within 3 weeks after birth

skeleton
