GlossaryEctodysplasin A2 Receptor

regulates development of skin, hair, and ectodermal tissues

The Ectodysplasin A2 Receptor (EDA2R) is a protein found on the surface of certain cells that plays a crucial role in the development of skin, hair, and other ectodermal tissues. Mutations in the gene encoding this receptor can lead to conditions like ectodermal dysplasia, which can result in abnormalities in hair growth, skin texture, and dental development.
