De Novo Mutation in KRT1 Leads to Epidermolytic Palmoplantar Keratoderma: from Chinese Traditional Treatment to Prenatal Diagnosis Using Whole-Exome Sequencing-Plus.
DNA and Cell Biology 2023 August 11
Congenital skin disorders are a class of complex genetic diseases that are difficult to diagnose and treat. We developed trio whole-exome sequencing-plus (WES-plus) for detecting de novo mutations and evaluated the use of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for treating congenital skin disorders. In this study, we successively performed panel-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) and Trio WES-plus in a child with frequent large blisters. Panel-based NGS revealed no pathogenic mutations. Trio WES-plus for resequencing based on cutaneous keratosis of the palms and feet detected a missense mutation (c.1436T>A, p.Ile479Asn) in the coding region of KRT1 in the child but not in his parents. Following prenatal diagnosis, a healthy second baby without the mutation was born. The disease symptoms of epidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma (EPPK) application were improved by TCM and Western medicine. Our study revealed the pathogenicity of a de novo mutation in human KRT1 , which expands the mutation spectrum of EPPK. Trio WES-plus is useful for diagnosing genetic diseases and providing genetic guidance from prenatal diagnosis to treatment.
