RESUMEN
El síndrome de Haberland o lipomatosis encefalocraneocutánea es un síndrome muy infrecuente caracterizado por la tríada clásica de afectación cutánea, ocular y del sistema nervioso central. Fue descrito por primera vez en 1970 por Haberland y Perou, habiéndose descrito unos 60 casos desde entonces. Presentamos un caso de un varón de 14 semanas diagnosticado de síndrome de Haberland con afectación ocular bilateral en forma de coloboma palpebral y coristomas
Haberland syndrome or encephalocutaneous lipomatosis is a very uncommon syndrome that is characterised by changes in the skin, eye, and central nervous system. It was first described in 1970 by Haberland and Perou, with about 60 cases having been reported since then. A case is reported of a 14-week-old male diagnosed with Haberland syndrome with bilateral ocular involvement in the form of palpebral coloboma and choristomas

En el presente trabajo abordaremos la sentencia del Tribunal Superior de Justicia de Galicia de 10 de julio de 2019. Se trata de un caso en el que se cuestionan los daños derivados de la ausencia de una genuina labor de consejo genético, en una paciente con una patología hereditaria. En nuestro comentario trataremos los argumentos de las partes, así como una aproximación crítica al análisis del Tribunal, y al uso generalizado de la institución jurídica de la "pérdida de oportunidad" como fundamento de la responsabilidad patrimonial de la Administración
In this paper, we will address the resolution of the Galician Superior Court, 10th July 2019. It deals with the damages coming from the lack of true genetic counselling, concerning a patient with a hereditary genetic disorder. In this piece, we will focus on the parties' arguments, and also with a critic approach to the Court analysis, regarding the general utilisation of the legal institution "loss of therapeutic chance" as a founding basis of the Administration liability

X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XLHED) is caused by defects in the EDA gene that inactivate the function of ectodysplasin A1 (EDA1). This leads to abnormal development of eccrine glands, hair follicles, and teeth, and to frequent respiratory infections. Previous studies in the naturally occurring dog model demonstrated partial prevention of the XLHED phenotype by postnatal administration of recombinant EDA1. The results suggested that a single or two temporally spaced injections of EDI200 prenatally might improve the clinical outcome in the dog model. Fetuses received ultrasound-guided EDI200 intra-amniotically at gestational days 32 and 45, or 45 or 55 alone (of a 65-day pregnancy). Growth rates, lacrimation, hair growth, meibomian glands, sweating, dentition, and mucociliary clearance were compared in treated and untreated XLHED-affected dogs, and in heterozygous and wild-type control dogs. Improved phenotypic outcomes were noted in the earlier and more frequently treated animals. All animals treated prenatally showed positive responses compared with untreated dogs with XLHED, most notably in the transfer of moisture through paw pads, suggesting improved onset of sweating ability and restored meibomian gland development. These results exemplify the feasibility of ultrasound-guided intra-amniotic injections for the treatment of developmental disorders, with improved formation of specific EDA1-dependent structures in dogs with XLHED.

Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is a rare genetic condition resulting from defective development of ectodermal derivatives, such as hair, teeth, and sweat glands. Autosomal recessive (AR) forms of HED may be caused by pathogenic variants of the ectodysplasin A1 receptor (EDAR) gene that encodes a receptor involved in the NF-κB signaling pathway. Here, we describe three cases of AR-HED in families of Turkish, Austrian, and German-American origin (with or without known consanguinity). In these cases, two out-of-frame deletions and a pathogenic missense variant of EDAR were found to be disease-causing due to reduced availability of the respective messenger RNA or impaired interaction of the encoded protein with its binding partner leading to diminished signal transduction. The same missense variant, c.1258C>T (p.Arg420Trp), has actually been reported to be restricted to the Icelandic population and to be associated with non-syndromic tooth agenesis but not HED. As our patient has no known relationship to Icelandic individuals and displays a rather severe HED phenotype, we suggest that EDAR-Arg420Trp is a more widespread variant, possibly with variable clinical expressivity.

BACKGROUND: Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is a common recessive X-linked hereditary disease that affects the development of ectoderm. Gene mutations of ectodysplasin A (EDA) play key roles in process of this disease. In our preliminary study, three unknown mutation sites (c.878 T > G, c.663-697del and c.587-615del) were detected from the pedigrees of HED. METHODS: Conservation analysis of the related homologous proteins in 3 unknown EDA gene mutation sites was conducted using the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) Genome Browser database. SIFT and PolyPhen-2, the online gene function prediction software, were utilized to predict the pathogenicity of point mutation of c.878 T > G. RESULTS: All three unknown mutation sites were located in the highly-conserved region of EDA and possessed strong amino acid conservation among different species. In addition, the results of the pathogenicity prediction of point mutation of c.878 T > G by SIFT (P = 0.00) and PolyPhen-2 (S = 0.997) demonstrated that the mutation site had considerable pathogenicity theoretically. CONCLUSIONS: The EDA mutations of c.878 T > G, c.663-697del and c.587-615del may be responsible for the pathogenesis of HED in their pedigrees.

We report on a 2-year-old girl presenting with a severe form of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED). The patient presented with hypotrichosis, anodontia, hypohidrosis, frontal bossing, prominent lips and ears, dry, pale skin, and dermatitis. The patient had chronic rhinitis with malodorous nasal discharge. The girl was the second born child of first-cousin immigrants from Northern Iraq. A novel homozygous mutation (c.84delC) in the EDAR gene was identified. This mutation most likely causes a frameshift in the protein product (p.S29fs*74). This results in abolition of all ectodysplasin-mediated NF-kB signalling. This complete loss-of-function mutation likely accounts for the severe clinical abnormalities in ectodermal structures in the described patient.

UNLABELLED: X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XLHED; ectodysplasin deficiency) has been classically described as affecting hair, sweat glands, and dentition. What may be underappreciated is the effect ectodysplasin deficiency has on glands surrounding the airways and eyes and the resulting chronic health issues. In this study, 12 male children (age range 6-13 years) and 14 male adults with XLHED (18-58 years of age) were investigated by pulmonary function tests, measurement of fractional exhaled nitric oxide, and by ophthalmologic assessments. Twelve healthy individuals (six children, six adults) served as controls. Signs of airway constriction and inflammation were detected in eight children with XLHED, including the youngest subject, and in ten adult XLHED patients. Increased tear osmolarity, reduced tear film break-up time, and other ocular abnormalities were also present at an early age. Five of 12 XLHED subjects not reporting a history of asthma and 7 of the 12 patients not reporting a history of dry eye issues showed at least two abnormal test results in the respective organ system. The presence of residual sweat ducts, suggestive of partial ectodysplasin gene expression, correlated with milder disease in two XLHED subjects with mutations affecting the collagen-like domain of ectodysplasin. CONCLUSION: The high prevalence of asthma-like symptoms in XLHED patients as young as 6 years and a similar prevalence of dry eye problems indicate that screening evaluation, regular monitoring, and consideration of therapeutic intervention should begin in early childhood.

BACKGROUND: Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is a rare condition characterized by hypotrichosis, hypohidrosis and hypodontia. A de novo heterozygous mutation in the tumour necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 gene (TRAF6) was recently identified in a patient with HED, while functional consequences resulting from the mutation remained unknown. OBJECTIVES: To determine the mechanism by which the TRAF6 mutation results in HED. METHODS: We performed coimmunoprecipitation (co-IP) studies to determine whether the mutation would affect the interaction of TRAF6 with transforming growth factor ß-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), TAK1-binding protein 2 (TAB 2) and ectodysplasin-A receptor-associated death domain protein (EDARADD). We then performed co-IP and glutathione S-transferase-pulldown assays to determine the TRAF6 binding sequences in EDARADD. In addition, we analysed the effect of the mutant TRAF6 protein on the affinity between wild-type TRAF6 and EDARADD, as well as on EDARADD-mediated nuclear factor (NF)-κB activation. RESULTS: The mutant TRAF6 protein was capable of forming a complex with TAK1 and TAB 2 in a similar way to wild-type TRAF6. However, the mutant TRAF6 protein completely lost the affinity to EDARADD, while the wild-type TRAF6 bound to the N-terminal domain of EDARADD. Furthermore, the mutant TRAF6 inhibited the interaction between the wild-type TRAF6 and EDARADD, and also potentially reduced the EDARADD-mediated NF-κB activity. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that the mutant TRAF6 protein shows a dominant negative effect against the wild-type TRAF6 protein, which is predicted to affect the EDARADD-mediated activation of NF-κB during the development of ectoderm-derived organs, and to lead to the HED phenotype.

BACKGROUND: Hypohidrotic/anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is a rare Mendelian disorder affecting ectodermal tissues. The disease is primarily caused by inactivation of any one of three genes, namely ectodysplasin A1 (EDA-A1), which encodes a ligand belonging to the tumour necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily; ectodysplasin A receptor (EDAR), encoding the EDA-A1 receptor and ectodysplasin A receptor-associated death domain (EDARADD), encoding an adaptor protein. X-linked recessive (EDA-A1), the predominant form of HED, as well as autosomal recessive and dominant (EDAR and EDARADD) inheritance patterns have been identified in affected families. OBJECTIVES: To determine the common genes causing HED in India. METHODS: We performed mutation analysis on 26 HED families from India (including 30 patients). In addition, we carried out sequence and structural analysis of missense/nonsense and insertion/deletion mutations. RESULTS: Among the 26 families analysed, disease-causing EDAR mutations were identified in 12 (46%) while EDA-A1 mutations were detected in 11 (42%). Four novel mutations in EDAR and five in EDA-A1 were identified. More importantly, a possible founder EDAR mutation, namely c.1144G>A, was identified in five independent families, thus accounting for about one-fifth of affected families in whom mutation was detected. A majority of EDA-A1 mutations localized to the TNF-like domain while the location of EDAR mutations was more widespread. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first report of a founder EDAR mutation and of a significantly high frequency of autosomal recessive HED.

La displasia ectodérmica hipohidrótica ligada al cromosoma X (XLHED) se caracteriza por un desarrollo anormal del pelo, los dientes y las glándulas sudoríparas. Está producida por mutaciones en el gen EDA, que se localiza en el cromosoma X y codifica para la proteína Ecdodisplasina A, miembro de la familia de ligandos relacionados con el factor de necrosis tumoral. Los varones afectados normalmente exhiben todas las características de la enfermedad, pero los portadores heterocigotos pueden mostrar manifestaciones de leves a moderadas. Aquí se describe una familia española en la que hemos identificado una mutación c.733_734insGA, previamente no descrita, en el gen EDA. Se localizaba en el exón 5 y producía un cambio en la fase de lectura en el codón 245 de la proteína, lo que daba lugar a un codón de parada prematuro tras 35 residuos. El análisis genético en familias con XLHED es fundamental para la identificación de las portadoras, para el diagnóstico prenatal y en general para proporcionar un asesoramiento genético correcto (AU)
X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XLHED) is characterized by abnormal development of the hair, teeth, and sweat glands. It is caused by mutations in the EDA gene, which maps to the X chromosome and encodes a protein called ectodysplasin-A, a member of the tumor necrosis factor-related ligand family. Affected males typically exhibit all the typical features of HED, but heterozygous carriers may show mild to moderate clinical manifestations. We describe the case of a Spanish family in which a novel heterozygous c.733_734insGA mutation at the EDA gene was identified. It was located in exon 5 and consisted of a frame-shift mutation at codon 245, which gave rise to an abnormal protein with a premature stop codon after 35 residues. Genetic analyses in families with XLHED are useful for checking carrier status, but they also provide information for genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis (AU)

BACKGROUND: Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is a congenital disorder characterized by sparse hair, oligodontia, and inability to sweat. It is caused by mutations in any of three Eda pathway genes: ectodysplasin (Eda), Eda receptor (Edar), and Edar-associated death domain (Edaradd), which encode ligand, receptor, and intracellular adaptor molecule, respectively. The Eda signaling pathway activates NF-κB, which is central to ectodermal differentiation. Although the causative genes and the molecular pathway affecting HED have been identified, no curative treatment for HED has been established. Previously, we found a rat spontaneous mutation that caused defects in hair follicles and named it sparse-and-wavy (swh). Here, we have established the swh rat as the first rat model of HED and successfully identified the swh mutation. RESULTS: The swh/swh rat showed sparse hair, abnormal morphology of teeth, and absence of sweat glands. The ectoderm-derived glands, meibomian, preputial, and tongue glands, were absent. We mapped the swh mutation to the most telomeric part of rat Chr 7 and found a Pro153Ser missense mutation in the Edaradd gene. This mutation was located in the death domain of EDARADD, which is crucial for signal transduction and resulted in failure to activate NF-κB. CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that swh is a loss-of-function mutation in the rat Edaradd and indicate that the swh/swh rat would be an excellent animal model of HED that could be used to investigate the pathological basis of the disease and the development of new therapies.

INTRODUCTION: Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is a human heritable disorder characterized by sparse hair, reduced ability to sweat and hypodontia. The HED exhibits X-linked, autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant mode of inheritance. Mutations in four genes including EDA, EDAR, EDARADD, and WNT10A are known to cause hypohidrotic and anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Genotyping of both affected and normal individuals of two consanguineous Pakistani families (A, B), showing autosomal recessive HED, was carried out using microsatellite markers linked to EDAR gene on chromosome 2q11-q13. To screen for mutations in the gene EDAR, all of its exons and splice junction were amplified and sequenced directly, using an automated DNA sequencer. RESULTS: Genotyping using microsatellite markers analysis showed linkage of the two families to gene EDAR on chromosome 2q11-2q13. Subsequently, screening of all the 12 exons and splice junctions of gene EDAR revealed a novel missense mutation (c.1163T>C; p.Ile388Thr) in family A and a novel insertion mutation (c.1014insA; p.V339SfsX6) in family B. CONCLUSION: Our findings extend the body of evidence supporting the role of EDAR signaling pathway as a powerful regulator of development of ectodermal appendages.

INTRODUCTION: Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is a genetic disorder characterized by diminished or a lack of sweating, congenital missing teeth, and sparse or absent hair. Three genes, EDA, EDAR, and EDARADD, all related to tumor necrosis factor signaling, have been reported as responsible genes for this disorder. Among them, the largest numbers of mutations have been identified in EDA, and only two mutations identified in EDARADD. MATERIALS AND METHODS: DNA analysis of EDA, EDAR, and EDARADD was performed on a Mongolian patient by polymerase chain reaction-direct sequencing. RESULTS: The 5-year-old Mongolian individual had no erupted deciduous or permanent teeth. A panoramic radiograph showed only one tooth in the right mandible. His hair and eyebrows were sparse, but he did not have a short stature. He showed diminished sweating. The nails of his fingers and toes were normal. Based on these conditions, he was diagnosed with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. There was no gene mutation of EDA or EDAR. A novel heterozygous variant (P121S; c.361C>T) was identified in the death domain of EDARADD (NM_080738). No other member of his family was affected, and this variant was not identified in his parents or maternal grandparents. CONCLUSION: This study reports an individual affected with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia with a novel heterozygous P121S variant in the death domain of EDARADD.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to provide a quantification of taurodontism in Hypohidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia (HED) and to report its occurrence in a cohort of HED patients to assess phenotypic-genotypic correlations. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Of 68 HED patients retrospectively reviewed, 16 patients aged 7-51 years were selected and compared with a control sample (n = 351). The pulp surface index of the first lower permanent molar was calculated from the panoramic radiograph of each individual, and statistical comparisons between the HED patients and the control sample were performed. RESULTS: Whatever the genetic disorder, 81.25% of the HED patients exhibited a relative enlargement (>or=1 s.d.) of the pulp. Major deviations (>5 s.d.) were respectively related to men affected by large deletion of the EDA gene or missense mutation. The autosomal recessive form was linked to a relative moderate pulp enlargement (3.44 s.d.). In NEMO forms, the increase of pulp size in men appeared to be less marked than in EDA mutations. CONCLUSION: This study provides for the first time an objective assessment of pulp enlargement in HED patients, and the various degrees of taurodontism depicted could be interesting dental phenotypic markers of HED forms.

Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (HED) is characterized by abnormal development of ectodermal structures and its molecular etiology corresponds to mutations of EDA-EDAR genes. The aim of this study was first to investigate the genotype and dental phenotype associated with HED and second, to explore possible correlations between dental features and molecular defects. A total of 27 patients from 24 unrelated families exhibiting clinical signs of HED (22 XLHED males, 5 autosomal recessive forms) were retrospectively included. In the sample, 25 different mutations on EDA and EDAR genes were detected; 10 were not previously described. EDA and EDAR mutations corresponded respectively to 80.0% and 20.0% of the mutations. The dental phenotype analysis revealed a mean number of primary and permanent missing teeth ranging respectively from 14.5 (4-20) to 22.5 (10-28); the majority of the patients exhibited dysmorphic teeth. Overall, no differential expression in the degree of oligodontia according to either the mutated gene, the mutated functional sub-domains, or the mutation type, could be observed. Nevertheless, the furin group exhibited severe phenotypes unobserved in the TNF group. Significant differences in the number of some primary missing teeth (incisor and canine) related to EDA-EDAR genes defects were detected for the first time between XLHED and autosomal recessive HED, suggesting differential local effects of EDA-EDAR genes during odontogenesis. The present genotypic-phenotypic findings may add to the knowledge of the consequences of the molecular dysfunction of EDA-NF-kB in odontogenesis, and could be helpful in genetic counseling to distinguish autosomal forms from other HED syndromes.

Hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia is a rare congenital disorder that results in abnormalities in the structures of ectodermal origin: hair, teeth, and eccrine sweat glands. DNA sequence analysis of EDAR gene in a Pakistani family, demonstrating autosomal recessive form of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, identified a novel homozygous mutation affecting splice donor site of exon 5 [IVS5+1G > or = C] of the gene.
