FGF4 retrogene on CFA12 is responsible for chondrodystrophy and intervertebral disc disease in dogs. [PDF]
Chondrodystrophy in dogs is defined by dysplastic, shortened long bones and premature degeneration and calcification of intervertebral discs. Independent genome-wide association analyses for skeletal dysplasia (short limbs) within a single breed ...

Prenatal diagnosis of proximal focal femoral deficiency: Literature review of prenatal sonographic findings [PDF]
Proximal focal femoral deficiency (PFFD) is a rare musculoskeletal malformation that occurs in 0.11-0.2 per 10,000 live births. This congenital anomaly involves the pelvis and proximal femur with widely variable manifestations, from mild femoral ...

Mutations in DYNC2LI1 disrupt cilia function and cause short rib polydactyly syndrome. [PDF]
The short rib polydactyly syndromes (SRPSs) are a heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive, perinatal lethal skeletal disorders characterized primarily by short, horizontal ribs, short limbs and polydactyly.

Smad4 regulates growth plate matrix production and chondrocyte polarity. [PDF]
Smad4 is an intracellular effector of the TGFβ family that has been implicated in Myhre syndrome, a skeletal dysplasia characterized by short stature, brachydactyly and stiff joints.
