  • AXIN2-Associated Polyposis|ODCRCS|Oligodontia-Colorectal Cancer Syndrome

    a rare autosomal dominant syndrome caused by constitutional (germline) loss-of-function variants in axin2 gene. it is characterized by the presence of multiple colorectal adenomatous polyps and an increased risk of colorectal carcinoma. oligodontia and ectodermal dysplasia may or may not be present.

    human eda wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of xq13.1 and is approximately 423 kb in length. this allele, which encodes ectodysplasin-a protein, is involved in the morphogenesis of ectodermally derived tissues. mutation of the gene is associated with x-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia type 1 and x-linked, selective tooth agenesis type 1.
  • Oligodontia

    the congenital absence of six or more permanent teeth with the exclusion of third molars.
