Epidermolysis Bullosa • Three major types: • Simplex (Epidermal) • Mutations of keratin 5 / 14 and plectin • Junctional (Basement Membrane) • Mutations of basement membrane proteins • Dystrophic (Dermal) • Mutations of type VII collagen • Some authors also include Hemidesmosomal • Revised classification in 2000 • Fine, JD et al, J Am Acad Dermatol 42: 1051-1066
EBS BP180 = BPAg2 = type XVII col JEB Laminin 5 has α3/β3/γ2 chains DEB Fine, JD et al, JAAD 2000; 43: 135-137
EB Clinical-Molecular Correlations From Pai, Am J Clin Derm 2002;3:371-380
EB Simplex (EBS) • Mutations in genes for • keratins (intermediate filaments) • plectin (hemidesmosome plaque) • Most are autosomal dominant • Subtypes of EBS: • Weber-Cockayne Keratin 5,14 • palms and soles • childhood or adult onset • Köbner Keratin 5,14 • generalized, at birth
EBS cont. • Dowling-Meara Keratin 5,14 • generalized, at birth, • herpetiform • hyperkeratosis • EBS + Muscular Dystrophy Plectin • Generalized EB • MD later in life • Some classify as EB HD
Junctional EB (JEB) • Lamina lucida defects of • anchoring filaments • hemidesmosomes • Most are autosomal recessive • Types: • JEB-H (Herlitz) Laminin 5 • Anchoring filament protein • Any of 3 chains (α3β3γ2) • Severe, generalized, granulation tissue • Lethal in < 2 years
JEB cont. • JEB-nH (Non-Herlitz) Laminin 5 • Variable severity Type XVII Col • Alopecia (BP 180) • Dental problems • risk of squamous cell ca ? • JEB-PA (pyloric atresia) 64 Integrin • Either of 2 chains • Variable severity • + pyloric atresia • Some classify as EBHD • Bauer, JW, and Lanschuetzer, Clin Exp Derm 2003; 28:53-60.
Dystrophic EB • Dominant (DDEB) and Recessive (RDEB) • Many (>500) mutations identified in collagen VII gene (COL7A1) on 3p21 • Collagen VII is found in the • anchoring fibril • anchoring plaque
Dominant Dystrophic EB (DDEB) • DDEB • Wide spectrum of severity • Generally mild • May be generalized or severe at birth • Improves with age
RDEB • RDEB-nHS (non-Hallopeau-Siemens) • Less severe, variable • RDEB-HS (Hallopeau-Siemens) • Severe with • Esophageal strictures • Pseudosyndactyly • Anemia and failure to thrive • Dental problems • Risk for squamous cell carcinoma
RDEB Adolescence 19 Years Old Squamous Cell Carcinoma BK Amputation 20 Years Old Same patient Fatal Metastatic SCC
RDEB Variants 9 Year Old Boy Non-Hallepeau-Siemens Inverse involvement Pigmentary Abnormality
Father with DDEB Mother Asymptomatic with RDEB Mutation Child with one Mutation on Each Collagen 7 Allele Also has Deafness DEB Compound HeterozygoteDDEB and RDEB Mutations
EB: Diagnosis • Skin Biopsies • Routine histology • Electron microscopy • Immunofluorescence mapping of BM • Immunofluoroescence for specific proteins • Blood or skin • Genetic identification of the mutation
