June 2016 in “Journal of Human Genetics” This study found pathogenic mutations in genes EDA, EDA1R, and EDARADD in 101 out of 124 hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia patients, revealing 23 novel mutations and indicating genetic variability.
This study identified a missense variant in the EDA gene of a male cat, which likely caused hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, characterized by hair and teeth abnormalities; this represents the first report of such a genetic condition in cats.

November 2017 in “Expert opinion on orphan drugs” This review discusses the genetic basis of ectodermal dysplasia, highlighting that identification of gene pathologies enhances diagnosis and supports prenatal DNA testing, but it reports no new clinical results.
August 2025 in “BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth” In this study, prenatal ultrasonography was found to be a valuable tool for screening ectodermal dysplasia during pregnancy, and a new EDA gene variant associated with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia was identified, aiding in more accurate diagnoses and reproductive decision-making.
February 2026 in “Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases” This study identified pathogenic or likely pathogenic gene variants in 70.1% of Russian families affected by hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, expanding knowledge of causative mutations.
