Abstract

Several ectodermal dysplasia syndromes, including Ectrodactyly-Ectodermal dysplasia-Clefting (EEC) and Ankyloblepharon-Ectodermal Dysplasia-Clefting (AEC) syndromes, are known to result from mutations in the p63 gene. We investigated whether Rapp-Hodgkin syndrome (RHS) is also caused by mutations in the p63 gene. We identified a heterozygous de novo germline missense mutation, S545P, in the sterile-alpha-motif (SAM) domain of p63, in a Thai patient affected with RHS. This is the first genetic abnormality to be described in RHS. The amino acid substitution is the most downstream missense mutation in p63 reported thus far. Histological assessment of a skin biopsy from the patient's palm showed hyperkeratosis and keratinocyte cell-cell detachment in the upper layers of the epidermis, along with numerous apoptotic keratinocytes. Collectively, these investigations demonstrate that RHS is also caused by mutations in p63 and that the clinical similarities to AEC syndrome are paralleled by the nature of the inherent mutation.

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.

Birth Defects

Birth defects encompass structural and functional alterations that occur during embryonic or fetal development and are present since birth. The cause may be genetic, environmental or unknown and can result in physical and/or mental impairment. Here is the latest research on birth defects.
