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.
