This study uses ancient genomes to analyze adaptive evolution in East Asia, finding pre-Neolithic selection at key loci and a link between ADH1B*48His and wheat farming.

This study investigates the role of Fibronectin 1 in suture patency and its dysregulation in craniosynostosis models in mice, identifying FN1 as a key regulator of calvarial growth and cell differentiation.

This study identifies the role of mesenchymal Wnts in regulating morphogenetic movements of calvarial osteoblasts during apical expansion in mouse embryos.

This study shows that graded Fibronectin (FN1) cues guide calvarial osteoblast migration and suture patency, with disruptions in FN1 or related pathways causing craniosynostosis in mice.
