Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis (NPPK) is a diffuse, non-syndromic (isolated), autosomal recessive palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) with transgredients. It is characterized by non-progressive mild to moderate transgredient PPK. The mutation in is reported to underlie the condition. Though many case reports/series have demonstrated various mutations in , the genotype-phenotype correlation in this disorder is still lacking. We herein report two brothers with NPPK. Both patients were found to be compound heterozygous for c.796C>T and c.650_653delCTGT in the gene. We then summarize the previously reported cases of different mutations in along with their clinical phenotypes in an attempt to shed some light on this correlation. Further investigations and systematic data collection are still needed to clarify this issue.

Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis (NPPK) has been shown to represent a form of autosomal recessive palmoplantar keratosis due to biallelic pathological variants of SERPINB7, which encodes a serine protease inhibitor expressed in the epidermis. Approximately 10 years have elapsed since NPPK was demonstrated to be an independent genetic disease, and the most prevalent palmoplantar keratoderma (PPK) in East Asian countries due to a high prevalence of founder mutations in SERPINB7. Since then, it has become evident that biallelic pathological variants of SERPINA12, which encodes a serine protease inhibitor expressed in the epidermis, can also manifest symptoms analogous to those of NPPK.

Hereditary palmoplantar keratoderma (hPPK) comprises a clinical and heterogeneous group of skin disorders characterized by hyperkeratosis of the palms and soles. Variants of SERPINA12 have been implicated in autosomal recessive diffuse hPPK, which shares similarities with Nagashima-type PPK due to biallelic variants in SERPINB7. To date, seven SERPINA12 variants have been found in 11 patients with biallelic SERPINA12 variants worldwide.

Acral peeling skin syndrome (APSS; MIM 609796) is a rare genodermatosis characterized by painless focal cutaneous exfoliation of the dorsal hands and feet, typically displaying autosomal recessive inheritance. While cases associated with a founder mutation in TGM5 are relatively common in European Caucasian populations, no APSS cases have been reported from Japan or other East Asian countries. In contrast, Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis (NPPK; MIM 615598), caused by variants in SERPINB7, is relatively common in East Asia due to founder mutations.
