Loss of SPECC1L in cranial neural crest cells results in increased hedgehog signaling and frontonasal dysplasia

An J. Tran, Brittany M. Hufft‐Martinez, Dana N Thalman…·Irfan Saadi

This study shows that loss of SPECC1L in cranial neural crest cells causes increased Hedgehog signaling and craniofacial defects similar to human syndrome.

Genetic interaction of Specc1l and Thm1 reveals cytoskeletal - ciliary crosstalk

Brittany M. Hufft‐Martinez, Dana N Thalman, An J. Tran…·Irfan Saadi

The paper shows that SPECC1L regulates F-actin levels, which in turn affects cilia length and palate development, with a genetic interaction with Thm1.
