Pyloric atresia-junctional epidermolysis bullosa syndrome showing novel 594insC/Q425P mutations in integrin beta4 gene (ITGB4).

Abstract excerpt

Pyloric atresia-junctional epidermolysis bullosa syndrome (PA-JEB) is an autosomal recessive inherited rare blistering disorder caused by mutations in ITGA6 or ITGB4, genes encoding integrin alpha6 or beta4, respectively. In this study, we have disclosed the mutations in ITGB4 in a Korean patient with PA-JEB. The proband, who showed skin blisters, was diagnosed as having pyloric atresia and died 2 years after...
