RHBDF2-Regulated Growth Factor Signaling in a Rare Human Disease, Tylosis With Esophageal Cancer: What Can We Learn From Murine Models?
Tylosis with esophageal cancer syndrome (TOC) is a rare autosomal dominant proliferative skin disease caused by missense mutations in the rhomboid 5 homolog 2 (RHBDF2) gene. TOC is characterized by thickening of the skin in the palms and feet and is strongly linked with the development of esophageal...
