Pathognomonic oral profile of Enamel Renal Syndrome (ERS) caused by recessive FAM20A mutations

Abstract: Amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of inherited dental enamel defects. Commonly described as an isolated trait, it may be observed concomitantly with other orodental and/or systemic features such as nephrocalcinosis in Enamel Renal Syndrome (ERS, MIM#204690), or gingival hyperplasia in Amelogenesis Imperfecta and Gingival Fibromatosis Syndrome (AIGFS, MIM#614253). Patients affected by ERS/AIGFS present a distinctive orodental phenotype consisting of generalized hyp… Show more

“…It is predicted to be a kinase with targets specific to mineralization, calcium transport, and proteoglycan synthesis (de la Dure‐Molla et al. 2014), but this remains to be confirmed experimentally. As such, FAM20A may have additional unknown functions.…”

“…Both disorders involve hypoplastic AI in the primary and secondary dentitions, together with variable degrees of gingival hyperplasia, pulpal calcifications, and delayed tooth eruption (de la Dure‐Molla et al. 2014). In addition, nephrocalcinosis may subsequently develop with a variable age of onset that is incompletely defined.…”
