Gene expression array of brain, mandible and maxilla tissues from P0 FoxO6-/- and wildtype mice

FoxO6 is expressed in the brain, craniofacial region and somite, but the precise role of FoxO6 in craniofacial development remain unknown. We found that FoxO6 is expressed specifically in craniofacial tissues and FoxO6-/- mice undergo expansion of the face, frontal cortex, olfactory component and skull.
