Name keratosis palmoplantaris papulosa 1
Other name(s)
  • punctate palmoplantar keratoderma, type I
  • keratodermia palmoplantaris papulosa, Buschke-Fischer-Brauer type
  • Corresponding gene AAGAB
    Main clinical features
  • onset between ages 12 and 30 years, multiple tiny punctate keratoses over the entire palmoplantar surfaces, coalescence of the punctate keratoses into a more diffuse pattern over the pressure points of the sole, and variable nail changes
  • Genetic determination autosomal dominant
    Function/system disorder dermatology
    Type disease
    Remark(s)
  • AAGAB deficiency may impair endocytic recycling of growth factor receptors such as EGFR, leading to increased signaling and cellular proliferation.(PMID: 23064416))
