November 2018 in “American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A” This report describes a neurometabolic disorder linked to gain-of-function variants in the ODC1 gene, characterized by developmental delay, ectodermal abnormalities, and notable facial and neuroimaging features.
October 2025 in “Dermatology Practical & Conceptual” In this study, UVFD and sUVRD techniques revealed distinctive characteristics of GD lesions, suggesting that GD might be more common in younger individuals and females than previously thought, possibly due to underdiagnosis. Incorporating dermatoscopy in exams may help improve GD detection and management.
15 citations
,
June 2019 in “Biochemical Journal” This study identified a heterozygous de novo mutation in the ODC1 gene causing a new disorder characterized by overgrowth and developmental delay, and suggests that DFMO treatment may help manage elevated ODC activity and putrescine levels.
39 citations
,
September 2018 in “American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A” This case report describes a 32-month-old girl with a newly identified pediatric disorder linked to a de novo mutation in the ODC1 gene, mirroring symptoms seen in a transgenic mouse model.

May 2022 in “Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases” This study reported that the Undiagnosed Disease Program at Ghent University Hospital successfully provided definite diagnoses for 18% of referred adults with suspected rare diseases, primarily through genomic technologies.
43 citations
,
April 2011 in “AJP Endocrinology and Metabolism” This study found that androgens increase Odc1 expression in skeletal muscle myoblasts, promoting proliferation and delaying differentiation.
96 citations
,
October 1987 in “The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism” This study found that long-term GnRH agonist administration in premenopausal women with polycystic ovarian disease resulted in persistent suppression of ovarian steroid secretion, while adrenal steroid levels remained unchanged.
67 citations
,
September 2001 in “American Journal Of Pathology” This study found that overexpression of the enzyme ornithine decarboxylase in transgenic mice led to UVB-induced skin tumors, but this was prevented by the ODC inhibitor α-difluoromethylornithine.
37 citations
,
January 1986 in “Carcinogenesis” This study found that TPA treatment transiently induces high levels of ODC in mouse epidermal cells, particularly around hair follicles, with localization reduced by retinoic acid or cycloheximide pretreatment.
April 2026 in “Amino Acids” This study reviews prior research using transgenic K6/ODC mice and demonstrates that elevated polyamines in epithelial cells contribute significantly to skin tumor development and progression by stimulating proliferation, altering cell signaling and chromatin remodeling, and affecting immune functionality, amongst other mechanisms.
254 citations
,
March 2023 in “Diagnostics” This manuscript reviews current diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome, emphasizing the need for accurate diagnosis in both clinical and research settings, but it does not provide new clinical findings.
In this study, Origanum vulgare extracts showed antioxidant activity and increased insulin-like growth factor-1 expression without causing cytotoxicity in human hair dermal papilla cells.
