Abstract
Purpose: Dyschromatosis symmetrica hereditaria (DSH) is a rare autosomal dominant inherited pigmentary dermatosis. The gene responsible for DSH has been identified as adenosine deaminase acting on RNA1 (ADAR1). This study aimed to identify the causative variants in the ADAR1 gene in three Chinese families with DSH.
Patients and methods: Data and blood samples were collected from three Chinese families with DSH. Whole-exome and Sanger sequencing were performed to detect pathogenic gene mutation in the patients. Bioinformatics tools were used to predict the pathogenicity of the variants.
Results: Four heterozygous ADAR1 variants were identified, including two novel missense variants c.2369G>C (Arg790Pro), and 503C>T (Pro168Leu), and two previously reported variants: c.3232C>T(R1078C), and c.1472C>G (p.S491X). The novel c.503C>T variant was predicted as "deleterious" (score =-2.704) by PROVEAN, and "probably damaging" (score = 1) by PolyPhen2. The other novel variant c.2369G>C was also predicted as "deleterious" (score =-4.167) by PROVEAN, "probably damaging" (score = 1) by PolyPhen2, and "disease-causing" (p = 0.999) by Mutation Taster.
Conclusion: Two novel ADAR1 variants were found in Chinese patients with DSH. This research has expanded the ADAR1 gene database for DSH, enhancing our comprehension of the underlying mechanisms.
期刊介绍:
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal that focuses on the latest clinical and experimental research in all aspects of skin disease and cosmetic interventions. Normal and pathological processes in skin development and aging, their modification and treatment, as well as basic research into histology of dermal and dermal structures that provide clinical insights and potential treatment options are key topics for the journal.
Patient satisfaction, preference, quality of life, compliance, persistence and their role in developing new management options to optimize outcomes for target conditions constitute major areas of interest.
The journal is characterized by the rapid reporting of clinical studies, reviews and original research in skin research and skin care.
All areas of dermatology will be covered; contributions will be welcomed from all clinicians and basic science researchers globally.
