Mutations in AXIN2 cause familial tooth agenesis and predispose to colorectal cancer.
Wnt signaling regulates embryonic pattern formation and morphogenesis of most organs. Aberrations of regulation of Wnt signaling may lead to cancer. Here, we have used positional cloning to identify the causative mutation in a Finnish family in which severe permanent tooth agenesis (oligodontia) and colorectal neoplasia segregate with dominant inheritance. Eleven members of the family lacked at...
متن کاملTooth Agenesis
Tooth agenesis denotes a condition where teeth are missing due to a developmental failure. According to severity, this malformation can be subdivided into hypodontia, oligodontia and anodontia. With a frequency of 20–30%, tooth agenesis is the most prevalent dental dysplasia, but not all teeth are equally affected. Familial occurrence and concordance in twins indicate potential genetic causes. ...
متن کاملAxis inhibition protein 2 polymorphisms may be a risk factor for families with isolated oligodontia.
The objective of the present study was to search for Msh homeobox 1 (MSX1), paired box gene 9 (PAX9), ectodysplasin‑A (EDA) and axis inhibition protein 2 (AXIN2) variants in a family with isolated oligodontia and analyse the pathogenesis of mutations that result in oligodontia phenotypes. Members of a single family (but of different descent) with oligodontia and unrelated healthy controls were ...
متن کاملNovel PAX9 gene polymorphisms and mutations and susceptibility to tooth agenesis in the Czech population.
OBJECTIVES Tooth agenesis is one of the most common developmental anomalies in humans. Genetic and environmental factors may be of etiological importance in this condition. Among genes involved in tooth morphogenesis, mutations in PAX9, MSX1, AXIN2, WNT10a, and EDA genes have been associated with tooth agenesis. The aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between the PAX9 gene vari...
متن کاملAssociation between EDAR Polymorphisms and Non-Syndromic Tooth Agenesis in the Chinese Han Population.
OBJECTIVE To explore the relationship between single nuclear polymorphisms (SNPs) in ectodysplasin A receptor (EDAR) and EDAR-associated death domain (EDARADD) genes and non-syndromic tooth agenesis. METHODS Ten putative SNPs in EDAR and EDARADD were selected, and a case-control study was conducted in 112 subjects with non-syndromic tooth agenesis and 112 normal control subjects. DNA was obta...
