    Study identified two patients with novel biallelic LSS mutations who exhibited congenital hypotrichosis and midline anomalies but did not have cataracts. Epidermis-specific Lss knockout mice showed neonatal lethality due to dehydration, indicating that LSS could be involved in skin barrier integrity. Knockout of Lss in the epidermis caused hypotrichosis in adult mice. Lens-specific Lss knockout mice had cataracts.

    Metabolic and pathologic profiles of human LSS deficiency recapitulated in mice.

    In the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway, lanosterol synthase leads to the cyclization of (S)-2,3-oxidosqualene into lanosterol. Our data suggest LSS as a major gene causing a rare recessive neuroectodermal syndrome.
