KEGG   DISEASE: Aplasia of lacrimal and salivary glands
Entry
H00677                      Disease                                
Name
Aplasia of lacrimal and salivary glands
Description
Aplasia of lacrimal and salivary glands (ALSG) is a rare autosomal dominant condition characterized by insufficient development of the lacrimal and salivary systems. Patients with ALSG suffer from irritable eyes and dryness of the mouth. Mutations in FGF10 were recently described in ALSG.
