Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the ectodysplasin-A (EDA) gene can cause both X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XLHED) and non-syndromic hypodontia (NSH). The correlation between the phenotypes and genotypes of these two conditions has yet to be described. In the present study, 27 non-consanguineous Chinese XLHED subjects were screened and 17 EDA mutations were identified. In order to investigate the correlation between...
