Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * DLX3 is a homeobox gene, which are a group of genes that are involved in the development of the central nervous system. * It is expressed in a variety of cell types, including microglial cells, conventional dendritic cells, blood vessel endothelial cells, and preosteoblasts. * DLX3 is a key regulator of transcription, and its expression is upregulated in a number of cell types during development. * It is involved in the regulation of blood vessel development, epithelial cell differentiation, hair cell differentiation, and odontogenesis of dentin-containing tooth. **Pathways and functions:** * DLX3 is a key regulator of blood vessel development. It is expressed in endothelial cells of blood vessels, and its expression is upregulated in a number of mouse models of vascular development defects. * It is also involved in the regulation of epithelial cell differentiation. It is expressed in epithelial cells of the skin, and its expression is downregulated in a number of mouse models of skin disorders. * DLX3 is also involved in hair cell differentiation. It is expressed in hair cells, and its expression is upregulated in a number of mouse models of hair loss. * Finally, DLX3 is involved in the odontogenesis of dentin-containing tooth. It is expressed in cells of the dental lamina, and its expression is upregulated in a number of mouse models of dentinogenesis. **Clinical significance:** Mutations in the DLX3 gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and vascular abnormalities. These mutations can lead to a number of developmental disorders, including intellectual disability, seizures, and cardiovascular abnormalities. **Additional information:** * The DLX3 gene is located on chromosome 17q21. * It is a member of the DLX family of transcription factors. * It is a highly conserved gene, with a similar gene found in humans, mice, and zebrafish.
