| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis (NPPK) was an established autosomal recessive, early-onset palmoplantar keratoderma caused by mutations in the encoding SERPINB7 gene, a member of the serine protease inhibitor superfamily. To gain of more insight of NPPK, we promoted to create a knockout mouse model, selection of protease inhibited the activity of SERPINB7, and genome analysis of NPPK patients.
We identified novel missense mutations of SERPINB7 gene with NPPK. The mutated proteins formed aggregates and mislocalized within corneocytes, possibly resulting in loss of protease inhibitory activity at the proper location. We applied to the haplotype analysis to determine whether the pathogenic mutations were derived from a common ancestor or represented mutations in the genomic region of SERPINB7. In consequence, the founder effect of the mutation and other recurrent mutations might explain why NPPK was so common in the Japanese population but not in Western populations.
