Alterations in mandibular morphology associated with glypican 1 and glypican 3 gene mutations

ConclusionsAlterations in GPC3 expression are likely to mediate changes to mandibular size in craniosynostosis. These findings have potential future applications in the prevention and treatment of craniosynostosis and associated craniofacial dysmorphology.
