Multiple agenesis and anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia: a comparative longitudinal study of dental similarities and genetic differences in two groups of children.

AIM: Dental anomalies in shape and number may be present isolated or associated with other manifestations. In anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia they occur more frequently and severely. The authors examined a group of children with similar dental anomalies but no other ectodermal or extra-ectodermal signs. METHODS: This study makes a comparative evaluation of similarities and differences of dental anomalies between two groups: A anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and B similar dental finding but without extra- dental anomalies. RESULTS: In group A, the average number of agenesis in primary teeth was 3.5 (upper) and 5.33 (lower); in permanent teeth it was 5.4 and 5.8, respectively. In group B, the average was 1.62 (upper) and 0.25 (lower) in primary teeth, and 4.0 and 4.25 in permanent teeth respectively, with no constant pattern of occurrence. The study of tooth morphology of both groups revealed numerous anomalies in both dentitions. No differences were found in the average number of agenesis and morphological anomalies in the permanent teeth between both groups, but in the primary dentition group B presented a lower degree of incidence. CONCLUSION: The presence of almost normal primary dentition (regarding to number), but with morphological anomalies, should lead to suspect their exacerbation in the permanent dentition.

X-linked anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and de novo t(X;1) in a female.

A de novo translocation (X;1)(q13.1;p36.33) was found in a 2-year-old girl with typical clinical features of X-linked anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (EDA). The breakpoint at Xq13.1 is approximately the same as has been described in 2 other EDA females with X;autosome translocations.

A single point mutation within the ED1 gene disrupts correct splicing at two different splice sites and leads to anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in cattle.

The ectodysplasin 1 gene ( ED1) encodes a signaling molecule of the tumor necrosis factor family that is involved in fetal development of ectodermal appendages. Mutations in the ED1 gene are responsible for X-linked anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia characterized by impaired development of hair, teeth, and eccrine sweat glands in human, mouse, and cattle. Two isoforms of ectodysplasin 1, termed ED1-A1 and ED1-A2, arise by alternative splicing and bind to different receptors. We identified a novel ED1 splice site mutation in a cattle family with X-linked anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. The point mutation is located within a 5' splice site (splice donor) at the beginning of intron 8 that is used exclusively in the alternatively spliced ED1-A1 transcript. Remarkably, cDNA sequencing demonstrated that both physiological transcripts, i.e., the ED1-A1 and the ED1-A2 splice variant, were affected by this point mutation. In an affected animal, the use of cryptic internal splice donor and acceptor sites within exon 8 lead to the production of a single transcript lacking 51 or 45 bp with respect to the normal ED1-A1 or ED1-A2 transcripts, respectively. The translated protein of the mutated transcript contained a large deletion in the functionally important C-terminal tumor necrosis factor-like domain thus causing the observed phenotype of anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. Our findings suggest the presence of a splice enhancer in the ED1 gene in the region of the mutation.

[Prenatal diagnosis of X-linked anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia with X-chromosome inversion].

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the possibility of prenatal diagnosis of the fetal suspected to be affected by anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (EDA) in a family with X-linked EDA so as to provide a basis for prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling of this disorder. METHODS: Pedigree analysis and genetic counseling were performed in a family after a proband was diagnosed with EDA. The peripheral blood samples were collected from the proband, a 12-year-old boy, his mother, and his 2 aunts, one being pregnant, to undergo chromosome karyotype analysis. The fetus Puncture of umbilical vein was performed to collect the blood of fetus for chromosome examination. Induced abortion was conducted due to the diagnosis of the fetus with EDA. Autopsy, immunohistochemistry of the skin tissues of face, breast, epigastrium, and thigh, and X-ray photography of the lower jawbone were made. RESULTS: Pericentric inversion occurring at one of the X-chromosome [inv (x) (p22q13)] was found in the proband and his nephew (the fetus), both patients, and his mother and his second aunt (the pregnant woman), both carriers. Autopsy of the fetus showed epidermis dysplasia and deficiency of hair follicle and sebaceous gland. Immunohistochemistry showed that epithelial membrane antigen and cytokeratin were negatively expressed in the fetal skin tissues. CONCLUSION: Pedigree analysis and genetic counseling for the family members of EDA patients and prenatal and postpartum examination for the fetus help diagnose EDA.

A novel de novo frame-shift mutation of the EDA gene in a Chinese Han family with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.

Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is characterized by severe hypohidrosis, hypotrichosis, and hypodontia. It can be inherited in autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked patterns. Mutations in the EDA gene, which encodes ectodysplasin-A, are responsible for X-linked HED (XLHED). In the present study, we identified a Chinese Han family with XLHED. Direct DNA sequence analysis of the entire coding region and exon-intron boundaries of EDA identified a novel de novo mutation, c.573_574insT, in two affected males and one carrier female. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis showed that the mutation was not present in 200 controls. The 1-bp insertion mutation resulted in a frameshift, which causes premature termination of EDA polypeptide and truncation of the EDA protein. These results suggest that the c.573_574insT mutation of the EDA gene is a cause for XLHED in the family. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first de novo insertion mutation of EDA described for XLHED.

Anomalies of tooth formation in hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.

OBJECTIVE: The X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is the most common type of ectodermal dysplasia. The clinical identification of possible heterozygous females can be difficult because of the varying degrees of clinical signs caused by X-chromosome inactivation. This study is the first to elaborate on anomalies of tooth formation found in a group of hemizygous males and heterozygous females with known ED1 mutations. These tooth anomalies may be used as dental biomarkers for heterozygous females, enabling an earlier diagnosis, and therefore, better treatment and genetic counselling. METHODS: Anomalies of tooth formation were examined using panoramic radiographs, dental casts and oral photographs in hemizygous males and heterozygous females who were identified by molecular genetic analysis. The results were compared to existing controls and normative data. RESULTS: All affected males had multiple missing permanent teeth and tooth malformations. The heterozygous females had a significantly higher frequency of agenesis of permanent teeth compared to normative data. The heterozygous females had an increased prevalence of tooth malformations and reduced tooth size, especially in the mesiodistal dimension. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that observed anomalies of tooth formation may be used as dental biomarkers in the clinical identification of potentially heterozygous females.

Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia: a unique approach to esthetic and prosthetic management: a case report.

Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is a rare congenital disease that affects several ectodermal structures. The condition is usually transmitted as an x-linked recessive trait, in which gene is carried by the females and manifested in males. Manifestations of the disease differ in severity and involve teeth, skin, hair, nails and sweat and sebaceous gland. Ectodermal dysplasia is usually a difficult condition to manage. Prosthodontically, because of the typical oral deficiencies, and afflicted individuals are quite young to receive extensive prosthodontic treatment, which restores their appearance and helps them, for the development of positive self-image. This case report describes the management of upper jaw with over denture with copings on existing teeth i.e. two permanent peg shaped centrals as well as lateral incisors. However with adequate of retainer lower denture was provided with a new treatment modality.

[Mutation detection in ED1 gene in hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) families].

OBJECTIVE: To detect ED1 gene mutation in three hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) nuclear families. METHODS: Peripheral blood samples were obtained from three different families of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. Genomic DNA was extracted. Polymerase chain reaction, direct sequencing and restriction enzyme reaction were performed to identify the mutations. RESULTS: Different missense mutation in ED1 gene were found in each family: C412G, A1201G and C1375T. Two of the mutations had not been previously reported. CONCLUSION: Mutations in the ED1 gene are responsible for the phenotypes of HED of the patients in the family.
