A variety of cutaneous abnormalities can be seen in patients with malignant diseases, some of which are infectious, with others representing direct involvement of the skin by the underlying disorder. Yet another group of lesions can be regarded as associated markers of the malignant process, and, as such, are termed "paraneoplastic." This review considers the latter collection of conditions, grouping them by the generic type of malignancy that is usually linked to the paraneoplasia. Read More

Epidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma (EPPK, OMIM 144200) is an autosomal dominant inherited disease, clinically characterized by diffuse yellowish thickening of the skin on the palms and soles, usually with erythematous borders developing during the first weeks or months after birth. Pathogenesis of EPPK is determined by mutations in the keratin gene (KRT9). Thirty three mutations in the KRT9 gene from 100 EPPK families have been identified. Read More

Mutations in the gene (GJA1) encoding connexin43 (Cx43) are responsible for several rare genetic disorders, including non-syndromic skin-limited diseases. Here we used two different functional expression systems to characterize three Cx43 mutations linked to palmoplantar keratoderma and congenital alopecia-1, erythrokeratodermia variabilis et progressiva, or inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus. In HeLa cells and Xenopus oocytes, we show that Cx43-G8V, Cx43-A44V and Cx43-E227D all formed functional gap junction channels with the same efficiency as wild-type Cx43, with normal voltage gating and a unitary conductance of ~110 pS.

Gaucher disease (GD) is one of the commonest lysosomal storage diseases that is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner and affects 1 in 50,000 to 100,000 people in the general population. The frequency is much higher (1 in 500 to 1000) in people of Ashkenazi Jewish heritage due to a founder effect. GD is caused by decreased or absent activity of β-glucosidase with subsequent accumulation of the substrate glucosylceramide in macrophages due to genetic alterations in the gene. Read More

We report a child with a past medical history notable for congenital deafness, palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK), and hypothalamic glioma who initiated a MEK inhibitor trametinib for cancer-directed therapy at 11 years of age and was incidentally noted to have marked improvement in his PPK. Trametinib withdrawal led to worsening in the patient's PPK. We speculate that the patient's PPK improved because of trametinib, given the temporal relationship between trametinib therapy and PPK severity, observed both after introduction and withdrawal of trametinib therapy.

Punctate palmoplantar keratoderma (PPPK) is a rare, autosomal dominant disorder of keratinization with three main variants. PPPK type 1 (MIM 148600), also known as Buschke-Fischer-Brauer disease, is characterized by the progressive development of multiple small hyperkeratotic papules with central indentations that are irregularly distributed on the palms and soles, often deteriorating to more extensive diffuse hyperkeratosis on the weight-bearing areas of plantar skin. The PPPK1 gene was recently identified as the α and γ-adaptin binding protein p34 gene AAGAB, and in a single case, the COL14A1 gene. Read More

Background: Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (AC) is an inherited, frequently underdiagnosed disorder, which can predispose individuals to sudden cardiac death. Rare, recessive forms of AC can be associated with woolly hair and palmoplantar keratoderma, but most autosomal dominant AC forms have been reported to be cardiac specific. Causative mutations frequently occur in desmosomal genes including desmoplakin (DSP). Read More

The temperature-sensitive and calcium-permeable transient receptor potential vanilloid 3 (TRPV3) channel abundantly expressed in keratinocytes plays important functions in skin physiology. Dysfunctional gain-of-function gene mutations cause genetic Olmsted syndrome characterized by periorificial keratoderma, palmoplantar keratoderma, inflammation, and severe itching, which suggests that pharmacological inhibition of overactive TRPV3 function may be beneficial in treating pruritus or skin disorders. To test this hypothesis, we identified natural compound forsythoside B as a TRPV3 inhibitor through screening of human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells expressing human TRPV3 channels in a calcium fluorescent assay.

Investigation of genetic determinants of Mendelian skin disorders has substantially advanced understanding of epidermal biology. Here we show that mutations in PERP, encoding a crucial component of desmosomes, cause both dominant and recessive human keratoderma. Heterozygosity for a C-terminal truncation, which produces a protein that appears to be unstably incorporated into desmosomes, causes Olmsted syndrome with severe periorificial and palmoplantar keratoderma in multiple unrelated kindreds.

Annular epidermolytic ichthyosis (AEI; Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man [OMIM]# 607602) is a rare subtype of epidermolytic ichthyosis that is characterized by polycyclic, migratory erythematous and scaly plaques. It typically results from dominant mutations in the keratin 1 or keratin 10 genes. We present the case of a 5-year-old girl who developed intermittent eruptions of pink, round, scaly, migratory plaques with palmoplantar keratoderma and was originally diagnosed with erythrokeratodermia variabilis et progressiva (EKVP).

Background: It is important to better understand the role that environmental risk factors play on the development of esophageal cancer in Howel-Evans families. Additionally, there is little published about appropriate esophageal cancer screening practices in families genetically confirmed to have this condition.
Methods: Surveys were distributed to 47 addresses of an American family with Howel-Evans syndrome, of which 29 responded and met inclusion criteria. Read More

The clinical features of bullous pemphigoid are extremely polymorphous. Several atypical forms of bullous pemphigoid have been described, and the diagnosis critically relies on immunopathological findings. We describe three bullous pemphigoid patients characterized by palmoplantar keratoderma, diffused hyperkeratotic cutaneous lesions and extremely high levels of immunoglobulin E serum. Read More

The ichthyoses are a heterogeneous group of skin diseases characterized by localized or generalized scaling or both. Other common manifestations include palmoplantar keratoderma, erythroderma, recurrent infections, and hypohidrosis. Abnormal barrier function is a cardinal feature of the ichthyoses, which results in compensatory hyperproliferation and transepidermal water loss. Read More

FAM83G/Fam83g genetic variants have been described in dogs, mice and recently also in humans. They are associated with palmoplantar keratoderma and altered hair or coat phenotype, reported as wooly phenotype in mice. FAM83G/Fam83g is an unexplored effector of temporally and spatially coordinated Wnt and BMP signalling which are key pathways in pre- and postnatal hair follicle morphogenesis and differentiation.

Palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) is a rare group of excessive skin disorder characterized by thickness over the palms and soles. The striate palmoplantar keratoderma (PPKS) is a form in which hyperkeratotic lesions are restricted to the pressure regions extending longitudinally in the length of each finger to the palm. Dominantly inherited mutations in genes including desmoglein 1, desmoplakin and keratin 1 have been suggested as genetic causes of PPKS. Read More

Palmoplantar keratodermas (PPKs) are a rare heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by abnormal thickening of the skin of palms and soles. Ocular manifestations reported with palmer planter keratosis include scleral melanosis, macular deposits, and congenital cataract. We report, for the first time, a case of bilateral keratoconus in a patient with PPK. Read More
