Dermatological and Skeletal Disorders

This cluster of papers focuses on genetic disorders such as Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum, Arterial Calcification, and Osteopoikilosis, caused by mutations in genes like ABCC6, ENPP1, and TGF-ß1. These mutations lead to ectopic mineralization and connective tissue abnormalities, contributing to the understanding of genetic heterogeneity and clinical manifestations of these diseases.
