BACKGROUND AND DESIGN
The expression of basement membrane-related antigens was surveyed in 2 Japanese siblings who died of pyloric atresia-junctional epidermolysis bullosa syndrome in early infancy.
RESULTS
The skin specimens of both patients demonstrated complete absence of detectable alpha 6 integrin and markedly reduced amounts of beta 4 integrin. All the other subtypes of epidermolysis bullosa used as controls demonstrated normal intensity of expression of alpha 6 and beta 4 integrin. In contrast to the negative immunoreactivity of monoclonal antibody GB3 in gravis-Herlitz junctional epidermolysis bullosa (n = 4), a bright linear pattern along the epidermal basement, membrane was demonstrated in the skin of both siblings with pyloric atresia-junctional epidermolysis bullosa syndrome. Based on these data, a monoclonal antibody against alpha 6 integrin was successfully used as a prenatal diagnostic probe for a skin biopsy specimen from a fetus at risk for pyloric atresia-junctional epidermolysis bullosa syndrome in this family.
CONCLUSION
The absence of detectable alpha 6 integrin, but not beta 4 integrin, in these cases raises the possibility that alpha 6 integrin or its ligands are responsible for the pyloric atresia-junctional epidermolysis bullosa syndrome phenotype seen in this family.
