Abstract
Importance: Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis (NPPK) is a hereditary dermatosis mostly caused by a nonsense mutation in SERPINB7. Despite the increasing interest in readthrough gentamicin treatment of NPPK, clinical evidence for this treatment is limited.
Objective: This study aimed to provide further evidence for the use of topical gentamicin in the treatment of NPPK in children with nonsense mutations.
Methods: We designed a bilaterally controlled study of topical gentamicin ointment. Children diagnosed with NPPK carrying nonsense mutations were enrolled in this study. A 0.1% gentamicin ointment was applied to one hand and an emollient to the other for 3 months. A bilateral comparison of the visual analog scale scores for clinical manifestations and safety was performed.
Results: Ten children with NPPK were included in this study. In comparison with the emollient side, the topical gentamicin side showed significant improvements in hyperkeratosis, erythema, maceration, and desquamation after 1 and 3 months of treatment (P < 0.05). However, hyperhidrosis and odor did not improve significantly. No adverse events were observed during the systemic safety monitoring examinations.
Interpretation: Topical gentamicin ointment showed good safety in the treatment of NPPK with nonsense mutations, indicating that it is a promising therapeutic choice in children with NPPK.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
