TP63基因对上皮增殖至关重要,分化,和胚胎发育过程中的维持。尽管临床差异很大,TP63相关症状以外胚层发育不良为特征,远端肢体畸形,和口面裂痕。我们确定了一个新的TP63变体(c.619A>G,p.K207E)在一名7个月大的中国患者中,患有口面裂痕和外胚层发育不良,但没有明显的外胚层发育不良迹象。以前很少报道这种表型。我们总结了文献中三种主要TP63相关表现的存在,并注意到关于p63结构域的CP和CL/P相关变体的不同分布。
The
TP63 gene is essential for epithelial proliferation, differentiation, and maintenance during embryogenesis. Despite considerable clinical variability,
TP63-related symptoms are characterized by ectodermal dysplasia, distal limb malformations, and orofacial clefts. We identified a novel
TP63 variant (c.619A > G, p.K207E) in a seven-month-old Chinese patient with orofacial clefts and ectrodactyly but no evident signs of ectodermal dysplasia. This phenotype was rarely reported before. We summarized the presence of the three main
TP63-related manifestations in the literature and noted different distributions of CP- and CL/P-related variants regarding p63 structural domains.
