  "summary": "Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a pediatric imprinting disorder characterized by tissue overgrowth, most commonly macroglossia, which can result in airway and feeding complications. Although dysregulated growth is a defining feature of BWS, the cellular interactions that drive organ-specific overgrowth remain poorly understood. We previously demonstrated that BWS macroglossia arises through…",
