DNA hypermethylation of Fgf16 and Tbx22 associated with cleft palate during palatal fusion

J. appl. oral sci; 27 (), 2019
Abstract Objective: Cleft palate (CP) is a congenital birth defect caused by the failure of palatal fusion. Little is known about the potential role of DNA methylation in the pathogenesis of CP. This study aimed to explore the potential role of DNA methylation in the mechanism of CP. Methodology: We es...

Liver proteome of mice with different genetic susceptibilities to the effects of fluoride

J. appl. oral sci; 24 (3), 2016
ABSTRACT A/J and 129P3/J mice strains have been widely studied over the last few years because they respond quite differently to fluoride (F) exposure. 129P3/J mice are remarkably resistant to the development of dental fluorosis, despite excreting less F in urine and having higher circulating F levels. T...
