Cyclopia.

I have about 3 gigs of information/writings I’ve done on defects of the Sonic hedgehog signaling pathway (not the general Hh pathway, but Shh specifically), including a massive presentation I pretty much did on my own because my group members were defective. Of course, in the end, they got great grades in the class, and I got the most mediocre grade ever, because I let them co-opt all my work. 

Shh defects cause holoprosencephaly type 3, which results in cyclopias such as this one. There are other causes of cyclopia, but this one is caused by a failure of the brain to divide into two hemispheres, and the Hox genes fail to align the structures along the head (since they’re not activated when the Shh pathway doesn’t work).

Most fetuses with alobar holoprosencephaly are miscarried around 20-22 weeks.

Please stop for a minute and read, it only takes a few seconds <3

This is a boy that lives in my town. His name is Trey Love.In July of 2008, at the age of 21 months, Trey was diagnosed with stage 4 neuroblastoma. Neuroblastoma is an aggressive cancer in children that attacks the nerve cells in the body. Trey’s cancer began as a tumor on his left adrenal gland. The tumor metastasized to another tumor behind his right eye. The cancer also spread into Trey’s bone marrow. Trey’s treatment includes five to six 21-28 day cycles of chemotherapy, harvesting of stem cells, surgery, stem cell transplants, antibody study, and chemo/radiation maintenance after the process is complete. These treatments yield a 30-50% cure rate. His scans are finally coming back clear but please pray for him. He is the sweetest and cutest little boy ever and he deserves to be healthy <3

all that and he’s still smiling <3 he really deserves it 

He deserve to have a reblog because hes strong enough to smile that big. A lot of us complain about small things , including myself. Seeing these pictures makes me think about how ungrateful I am of life. This little boy has it 20x worse than me , but he’s determined to have a smile. Bless this little boy<3 xoxo

I want to hug him :)
