A novel nonsense mutation in keratin 10 causes a familial case of recessive epidermolytic ichthyosis
Epidermolytic ichthyosis (EI) is a rare skin disorder characterized by generalized erythroderma and cutaneous blistering at birth, which is substituted by hyperkeratosis later in life. It is caused by autosomal dominant mutations in highly conserved regions of KRT1 and KRT10. To date, only 4 mutations with autosomal recessive inheritance of EI have been described in consanguineous families. All...
متن کاملRetinoids reduce formation of keratin aggregates in heat-stressed immortalized keratinocytes from an epidermolytic ichthyosis patient with a KRT10 mutation*.
Epidermolytic ichthyosis (EI) is an autosomal dominant epidermal skin fragility disorder caused by mutations in keratin 1 and 10 (K1 and K10) genes. Mutated keratins form characteristic aggregates in vivo and in vitro. Some patients benefit from retinoid therapy, although the mechanism is not fully understood. Our aim was to demonstrate whether retinoids affect the formation of keratin aggregat...
متن کاملMild recessive epidermolytic hyperkeratosis associated with a novel keratin 10 donor splice-site mutation in a family of Norfolk terrier dogs.
BACKGROUND Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis in humans is caused by dominant-negative mutations in suprabasal epidermal keratins 1 and 10. However, spontaneous keratin mutations have not been confirmed in a species other than human. OBJECTIVES To describe an autosomal recessive, mild, nonpalmar/plantar epidermolytic ichthyosis segregating in an extended pedigree of Norfolk terrier dogs due to a sp...
متن کاملA human keratin 10 knockout causes recessive epidermolytic hyperkeratosis.
Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis (EHK) is a blistering skin disease inherited as an autosomal-dominant trait. The disease is caused by genetic defects of the epidermal keratin K1 or K10, leading to an impaired tonofilament network of differentiating epidermal cells. Here, we describe for the first time a kindred with recessive inheritance of EHK. Sequence analysis revealed a homozygous nonsense mut...
