CHILD syndrome mimicking verrucous nevus in a Chinese patient responded well to the topical therapy of compound of simvastatin and cholesterol

Abstract: Multiple exons deletions or microdeletion was not rare in CHILD syndrome. Classical Sanger sequencing may not be useful enough to find all kinds of mutations. Next-generation sequencing may be more effective. It is important to conduct genetic counselling to prevent more serious defects in descendants. The excellent therapeutic effect on CHILD syndrome resulted from the topical treatment with simvastatin/cholesterol provides a proof-of-concept for other topical pathogenesis-based therapies for skin disease.

“…By contrast, few data are actually available about NSDHL and MSMO1, representing two other downregulated genes localized downstream the squalene epoxide synthesis. These transcripts have been associated with metabolic disease in humans [ 42 , 43 ]; however, the cattle NSDHL gene has been associated with transcriptomic changes occurring during the oocyte developmental competence [ 44 ], whereas MSMO1 (together with HMG-CoA reductase and other genes involved in cholesterol synthesis) was enriched in heifers fed with different forage-to-concentrate ratios [ 45 ]. Therefore, we hypothesize that the downregulation we observed might be due to a general rather than a gene-specific effect of GPO on cholesterol pathway.…”

“…Skin manifestations include unilateral red, scaly plaques in a ptychotropic or blaschkoid distribution with midline delineation 1 . Extracutaneous manifestations of CHILD include ipsilateral limb hypoplasia with or without limb malformations 2,3 . Proposed hypotheses for the development of the cutaneous dermatitis include the inability to produce cholesterol and the accumulation of toxic cholesterol precursors 2 .…”

“…Genomic DNA was extracted from three cultured cell types and 2 mL of blood using a TIANamp Blood DNA Kit [Tiangen Biotech (Beijing) Co., Ltd, Beijing, China]. Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) based on a custom enrichment kit including a total of 438 genes associated with genodermatosis was performed as previously described 7 . Meanwhile, copy number variant (CNV) analysis based on NGS data using read depth was performed to detect the CNVs in these genes.…”
