An ATP2A2 Missense Mutation in a Japanese Family with Darier Disease: A Case Report and Review of the Japanese Darier Disease Patients with ATP2A2 Mutations

摘要

Darier disease (DD) is a rare autosomal dominant skin disorder due to mutations in the ATP2A2 gene, which encodes sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase isoform 2 (SERCA2). The clinical manifestations of DD are characterized by warty papules and plaques in seborrheic areas, and association with neuropsychiatric abnormalities has also been reported in a few families with DD. We herein report a classic Japanese DD case with a previously described mutation (p.C560R) in ATP2A2 . In Japan, 26 mutations in the ATP2A2 gene in 7 pedigrees and 19 sporadic cases with DD have been reported, among which one pedigree and one sporadic case were accompanied by neuropsychiatric symptoms. A review of the reports confirmed that most mutations were of the missense type and no consistent genotype-phenotype correlations were found.
