Tooth agenesis, or hypodontia/oligodontia, refers to the congenital absence of a few teeth without any systemic disorders. Tooth development is a complex process that involves interactions between the oral epithelium and underlying mesenchyme. Perturbation of this process results in tooth agenesis. This disease could be inherited as either an autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked trait.

Identification of likely pathogenic and known variants in TSPEAR, LAMB3, BCOR, and WNT10A in four Turkish families with tooth agenesis.
Familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) is inherited retinal disorders with ocular manifestations that are caused by alterations in the Wnt signaling network. FEVR has an abnormal vascularization of the peripheral retina with the formation of retinal folds, retinal detachment, and in many cases the creation of a fibrovascular membrane located behind the lens. Mutations in NDP, FZD4, and LRP5 have been reported to be responsible for ophthalmic diseases including Norrie disease, FEVR, and osteoporosis pseudoglioma syndrome. The proteins encoded by these genes have all been shown to participate in the Wnt/Norrin signaling pathway. Recently, heterozygous mutations in TSPAN12, which is a component of the Norrin-FZD4-LRP5 signaling complex, have been found to be responsible for autosomal dominant FEVR.
