Abstract excerpt
Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED), a rare and heterogeneous hereditary disorder, is characterized by deficient development of multiple ectodermal structures including hair, sweat glands and teeth. If caused by mutations in the genes EDA, EDA1R or EDARADD, phenotypes are often very similar as the result of a common signaling pathway. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) affecting any gene product in this...
