Fraser syndrome is an autosomal recessive malformation disorder characterized by cryptophthalmos, syndactyly, and abnormalities of the respiratory and urogenital tract (summary by van Haelst et al., 2008). Genetic Heterogeneity of Fraser Syndrome Fraser syndrome-2 (FRASRS2) is caused by mutation in the FREM2 gene (608945) on chromosome 13q13, and Fraser syndrome-3 (FRASRS3; 617667) is caused by mutation in the GRIP1 gene (604597) on chromosome 12q14. See Bowen syndrome (211200) for a comparable but probably distinct syndrome of multiple congenital malformations. [from OMIM]

T-cell immunodeficiency, congenital alopecia, and nail dystrophy (TIDAND) is an autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency characterized by congenital thymic aplasia and severe T-cell immunodeficiency apparent at birth or soon thereafter. Affected individuals tend to have recurrent infections, oral candidiasis, and failure to thrive. Immunologic investigations show decreased numbers of T cells with poor proliferative response to phytohemagglutinin (PHA) and variable hypogammaglobulinemia. The phenotype is consistent with a T-/B+/NK+ form of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID; see, e.g., 102700). Patients with FOXN1 mutations do not respond well to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, as it is not curative; thymic transplantation offers a potential cure (Chou et al., 2014). [from OMIM]
