Background/objectives: The ectodysplasin A () gene, a member of the tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily, is involved in the early epithelial-mesenchymal interaction that regulates ectoderm-derived appendage formation. Numerous studies have shown that mutations in the gene can cause X-linked ectodermal dysplasia (ED) and non-syndromic oligodontia (NSO). Accordingly, this study aimed to identify the causative genetic mutations of the gene.

The role of cancer stem cells (CSC) in oral cancer is widely accepted. Yet, the existence of CSC in dysplastic tissue and the molecular pathways of progression from dysplasia to malignancy remain to be explored. Our retrospective study aimed to analyze the presence of CSC in oral epithelial dysplasia and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) concerning two epithelial-mesenchymal transition markers: Snail and E-cadherin.

Placental mesenchymal dysplasia (PMD) is a rare placental pathology that sonographically mimics gestational trophoblastic diseases. However, mesenchymal dysplasia can be distinguished from other conditions by the presence of villous edema and the absence of trophoblastic proliferation in the placental tissue. This pathology has been demonstrated to be associated with fetal growth restriction, Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, some chromosomal abnormalities and intrauterine fetal demise.

Patellar dysplasia (PD) can cause patellar dislocation and subsequent osteoarthritis (OA) development. Herein, a novel ABCA6 mutation contributing to a four-generation family with familiar patellar dysplasia (FPD) is identified. In this study, whole exome sequencing (WES) and genetic linkage analysis across a four-generation lineage presenting with six cases of FPD are conducted.
