E.The ectodermal dysplasias are a group of hereditary conditions characterized by abnormal hair, teeth, fingernails and toenails, and sweat glands.Most ectodermal dysplasia conditions are associated with sparse hair that has abnormal texture. The hair may appear thin, dry, and brittleHypohydrotic ectodermal dysplasia is inherited in an X-linked recessive manner.The responsible gene has been named EDA; it has been mapped to the Xq12-q13.1 chromosomal region .

I wanted to add to the previous post -In hypohydrotic ectodermal dysplasia, sebaceous glands (the oil glands within the skin) are absent, causing severe dryness.
Now I am confused myself.It could be sebaceous glands too.confused

  #12

hey sunshine77, thanks a lot for the nice explanation. But you are right, which one finally? sebaceous or sweet glands?? Such a question it is!!disapproval

  #13

Sweat Glands
Many individuals affected by ED syndromes cannot perspire. Their sweat glands may function abnormally or may not have developed at all. Without normal sweat production, the body cannot regulate temperature properly. Therefore, overheating is a common problem, especially during hot weather. Access to cool environments is important. <?XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = O />
