Brachydactyly with Novel BMP8A and FGFR1 Variants: A Case Report with Review of Literature
The current study describes a novel type of brachydactyly, characterized by absent phalanges in the toes. Whole genome sequencing identified rare missense variants in the BMP8A and FGFR1 genes, both of which are known to play a role in bone development. Bioinformatic and protein network analysis support their involvement in bone deformities.

Embryonic cranial cartilage defects in the Fgfr3Y367C/+ mouse model of achondroplasia
Abstract Achondroplasia, the most common chondrodysplasia in humans, is caused by one of two gain of function mutations localized in the transmembrane domain of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) leading to constitutive activation of FGFR3 and subsequent growth plate cartilage and bone defects.

Clinical Features of Seven COL2A1 Variations in Chinese Children With Type II Collagen Disorders
ABSTRACT Aim Type II collagen, encoded by the collagen type II alpha 1 (COL2A1) gene, is crucial for the structure of cartilage. This study aims to improve our understanding of Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia Congenita (SEDC) caused by mutations in COL2A1. We also aim to evaluate the safety and efficacy of growth hormone (GH) therapy in two SEDC patients.

Camptomelic dysplasia: A case report [PDF]
Campomelic/camptomelic dysplasia is a very rare, severe osteochondrodysplasia characterised by severe skeletal and nonskeletal malformations and lethal outcome mainly in neonatal period.

Our study suggests that exome sequencing adds approximately 60% of the diagnostic yield in fetuses with skeletal abnormalities reported in previous literature. The dysplasia phenotypes had a higher incremental yield, whereas the dysostoses group according to this study had a relatively lower yield, especially in the isolated dysostoses group.

A human COL2A1 gene with an Arg519Cys mutation causes osteochondrodysplasia in transgenic mice
OBJECTIVE: An arginine-to-cysteine substitution at position 519 of the COL2A1 gene causes early generalized osteoarthritis with mild chondrodysplasia in humans. In this study, a human COL2A1 gene with the same mutation was introduced into a murine genome

ABSTRACT Here we describe a neonate exhibiting hypotonia, macrocephaly, renal cysts, and respiratory failure requiring tracheostomy and ventilator support. Genetic analysis via rapid genome sequencing (rGS) identified a loss on chromosome 4 encompassing polycystin‐2 (PKD2) and a loss on chromosome 22 encompassing SH3 and Multiple Ankyrin Repeat Domains

Acromesomelic dysplasia Maroteaux type (AMDM) is a rare autosomal recessive osteochondrodysplasia. The responsible gene, AMDM gene, in human beings, has been mapped on 9p13-q12 chromosome by homozygous mapping and pathogenic mutation was later identified
