Desmoplakin mutations with palmoplantar keratoderma, woolly hair and cardiomyopathy.
Mutations in genes encoding for desmosomal components are associated with a broad spectrum of phenotypes comprising skin and hair abnormalities and account for 45-50% of cases of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy. Today, more than 120 dominant and recessive desmoplakin (DSP) gene mutations have been reported to be associated with skin, hair and/or heart defects. Here we report on ...
متن کاملGene for arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy with diffuse nonepidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma and woolly hair (Naxos disease) maps to 17q21.
BACKGROUND Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a heart muscle disease of unknown etiology that causes arrhythmias, heart failure, and sudden death. Diagnosis can be difficult, and this hampers investigation of its molecular basis. Forms of ARVC in which gene penetrance and disease expression are greater should facilitate genetic study. We undertook a clinical and genetic i...
متن کاملAutosomal recessive epidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma.
Palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) is a heterogeneous group of disorders. Epidermolytic PPK is a well delineated autosomal dominant entity, but no recessive form is known. Here we report two sons of phenotypically normal, consanguineous, Arab parents with features suggestive of PPK. They presented with patchy eczematous skin lesions followed by PPK and raised serum levels of IgE. Skin biopsy from t...
متن کاملClouston Syndrome with Palmoplantar Keratoderma
Clouston syndrome (hidrotic ectodermal dysplasia) is characterized by the clinical triad of nail dystrophy, alopecia and palmoplantar hyperkeratosis. Clouston syndrome is transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait and caused by mutations in the GJB6 gene (13q12), encoding the gap junction protein connexin 30 (C × 30). At present, there is no treatment for the disease and management is purely su...
متن کاملWatcher’s type of palmoplantar keratoderma
A 51-year-old man reported with progressive thickening of the skin of the hands and feet since the age of 6yrs. It was largely asymptoma c; however, brisk walking caused excessive swea ng, pain, and widening of the fissures on the soles of the feet. He also had scaly raised lesions on legs and knees. His mother, maternal aunt, cousin and nephew had similar lesions. Examination of the soles of f...
