Deformities (Figure 10D). The disease has been related with PORCN gene mutations, situated inside the Xp11.23 locus, which codifies proteins on the endoplasmic reticulum associated using the secretion of Wnt proteins.16,An Bras Dermatol. 2013;88(4):507-17.ADBCFIGURE 10: PubMed ID:http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21310658 Goltz syndrome.

This gene acts inside the transcription of nuclear element kappa b (NFB), which protects against apoptosis induced by TNF.six,19 The mutation is fatal in males, who only survive within the context of Klinefelter syndrome or postzygotic mutations. It is actually a multisystem disorder, affecting tissues derived in the ectoderm (neurological, ocular, skeletal and skin tissues).19 The cutaneous findings are precise to the syndrome and occur in 96 of situations. They’re ordinarily divided into 4 stages, which may be concomitant or sequential: stage 1- during birth or the initial months of life, characterized by linear inflammatory vesicles and bullae that will last weeks to months; stage 2- linear verrucous hyperkeratotic plaques appear (they are able to last several months); stage 3- brown or grey-blue, superimposed pigmentation can emerge, distributed along the Blaschko lines or appearing as “Chinese characters”, which tends to fade slowly till it disappears in adulthood; and lastly, stage 4- linear hypopigmented macules, with loss of cutaneous appendages within the midsection and limbs, in adulthood (Figure 11).19,20 Extracutaneous manifestations occur in 70-80 of circumstances, affecting the central nervous technique (convulsions, mental retardation, hydrocephalus), eyes (squint eyes, cataract, anophthalmia, microphthalmia), teeth (hypodontia, partial anodontia), and the musculoskeletal program (syndactyly, cranial deformities, hemiatrophy of limbs).Cutaneous mosaicisms: concepts, patterns and classificationsABCFIGURE 11: Incontinentia pigmenti.

Clinically, healthier regions are found in segmental distribution amongst impacted skin regions.1 The correction mechanisms involved include reverse mutation, gene conversion, gene deletion, intragenic recombination and second-site mutation.1 Reverse mutation happens when the pathogenic mutation modifications the wild-type sequence, restoring the transcription with the original protein. Gene conversion and intragenic recombination both involve homologous recombination and can’t be confused using a prospective reversion mechani.
