Subtle morphological changes in the mandible of Tabby mice revealed by micro-CT imaging and elliptical Fourier quantification

X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XLHED) is a genetic disorder due to a mutation of Eda gene and mainly characterized by an absence or deficient function of hair, teeth and sweat glands, and craniofacial dysmorphologies. Although the tooth abnormalities in Tabby mutant mice -the murine mod...
