Background
Ectodysplasin A (EDA1) is a member of the TNF-related ligand family involved in the early epithelial-mesenchymal interaction that regulates ectodermal appendage formation (1). It is a trimeric type II membrane protein that co-localizes with cytoskeletal structures at the lateral and apical surfaces of cells and can be expressed as eight alternatively spliced isoforms in hair follicles and in the epidermis of adult skin (2,3). EDAs are required during development, and loss or mutation of EDA1 results in a group of developmental disorders identified as ectodermal dysplasia type 1 (4,5).
