Mal De Meleda in a Taiwanese S.C. Chao, F.J. Lai, M.H. Yang, et al MAL DE MELEDA IN A TAIWANESE Sheau-Chiou Chao, Feng-Jei Lai, Mei-Hui Yang, and Julia Yu-Yun Lee Abstract: Mal de Meleda (MDM) is a rare form of recessive transgressive palmoplantar erythrokeratoderma for which mutations in the ARS gene have been identified recently. The ARS gene encodes SLURP-1, a secreted epidermal neuromodulator involved in epidermal homeostasis and inhibition of tumor necrosis factor-α release. A 27-year- old Taiwanese woman who had a history of palmoplantar keratoderma since birth presented with severe erythrokeratoderma of the hands and feet in a glove-and-stocking distribution with conical tapering of the fingers, and involvement of the skin over the major joints and thighs. There were also widespread mottled hyperpigmented macules. Mutation analysis revealed a homozygous missense mutation (G86R) in exon 3 of ARS gene of this patient.

In addition to the keratoderma, our patient manifested widespread mottled hyper- pigmented macules. Review of the clinical photos of the patients from the first pedigree revealed similar macules on the forearms in 1 of the affected sisters. Whether this pigmentary anomaly is a clinical mani- festation of MDM remains to be determined.3 The ARS (component B) gene encodes secreted lymphocyte antigen-6/urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor-related protein-1 (SLURP-1).7 To date, 10 different mutations in the ARS gene have been reported.7–9,12 The nucleotide 256 in exon 3 may represent a mutation hot spot, since 256G>A mutation has been reported 3 times (in the present pedigree, a Palestinian pedigree and a Turkish pedigree5) and 256G>C mutation has been reported once in Turkish pedigree.5 The pathogenesis of abnormal keratinization and local inflammation in MDM is still not clear. The process of keratinization and desquamation of the epidermis is very complex and requires precise coordination and sequential regulation of multiple genes. SLURP-1 is expressed in the skin, exocervix, gums and esophagus by immunostaining.13 The protein is secreted by cultured keratinocytes, and its expression is regulated by retinoic acid, epidermal growth factor and interferon-γ.

Clinically, it is characterized by progressive palmoplantar hyperkeratosis exhibiting a transgradiens pattern extending to the dorsal aspects of the hands and feet in a glove and stocking pattern. It is also associated with hyperhidrosis, nail changes, subungual hyperkeratosis and perioral erythema.

    Towards a Comprehensive Resource for Elucidating the Pathogenesis of Inherited Keratodermas Dr Mozheh Zamiri BSc (Hons), MB ChB, MRCP Doctorate of Medicine University of Edinburgh 2009 Alan Lyell Centre for Dermatology, Glasgow & Section of Dermatology, University of Glasgow ABSTRACT Keratoderma – pathological hyperkeratosis of palms and soles - is a cause of disability in many clinical situations, including the rare and heterogeneous group of inherited palmoplantar keratodermas (PPKs). The aim of this study was to work towards better understanding of molecular mechanisms active in the pathogenesis of PPK by the creation of a cell and tissue culture resource and its initial application to laboratory studies. My study was based on a diverse group of autosomal dominant disorders, previously ascertained in families from Scotland, in whom the precise genetic aetiology was known. I established a tissue and cell culture resource of inherited keratodermas of known single-gene aetiology from patients with proven keratin 1, 9, 17, loricrin and mitochondrial mutations. An additional pedigree with striate keratoderma with an unknown mutation was recruited, and the causative mutation identified as a novel heterozygous A-to-T transversion in exon 5 (c.430A>T) of the desmoglein 1 gene, converting an arginine residue to a premature termination codon (p.Arg144stop). The keratinocyte culture resource was established from patients with keratin 1, 9, 17 and loricrin mutations, as well as controls. Due to the pain associated with direct infiltration of plantar skin, biopsies were obtained using peripheral nerve block for plantar biopsy. The effectiveness of this approach, which may be useful for future administration of treatment, was made the subject of an open clinical trial.

This case of a 20 year old girl born of second degree consanguineous marriage is reported for its uniqueness in conformity with criteria enunciated by Stulli associated with hyperkeratotic warty papules clinically fitting into Darier’s disease with lip involvement. Another interesting feature being black pigmentation of fingers and nails which was due to cashew nut shell paste application mistaken for dry gangrene. KEYWORDS: Mal de Meleda, palmoplantar keratoderma, Onychogryphosis. INTRODUCTION: Mal de Meleda disease was first described by Stulli of Ragusa in 1826, named after Croatian island of Meleda, with wide spectrum of skin manifestations characterized by1,2 clinical features such as autosomal recessive inheritance with onset of diffuse palmoplantar keratoderma soon after birth associated with transgradience and glove and stocking keratoderma involving dorsa of hands and fingers, feet, toes, flexor aspect of wrist with sharp margin. Globally there are four reports of this clinical condition.3,4,5 The other associated features are palmoplantar hyperhidrosis, pitting, lichenoid plaques on the elbows, knees and groins, subungual keratoderma, koilonychia, dystrophy of great toe nail, progressive conical tapering of the finger tips, perioral erythema., high arched palate and corneal lesion.
