Congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (CIE) (OMIM 242100) is a major type of autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI) showing generalized scaling and erythroderma without blister formation.1 Mutations in ALOX12B (OMIM 603741), encoding 12R-lipoxygenase (LOX), were identified in patients with CIE in 2002. 2 To date, several ALOX12B mutations have been reported in CIE families.3,4 LOXs are a family of nonhaem, iron-containing dioxygenases which catalyse dioxygenation of fatty acids with one or more (Z,Z)-1,4-pentadiene moieties.5 Three members of the human LOX family, 15-LOX-2, 12R-LOX and eLOX-3, are preferentially expressed in the skin.5,6 The 12R-LOX pathway leads to hepoxilin B3 and trioxilin B37 resulting in 20-carboxy-trioxilin A3,5 which is thought to be a key biological regulator in the skin.8 12R-LOX deficiency results in a CIE phenotype in humans2,9,10 and in mice.11,12 We report that a Japanese patient with CIE, harbouring one previously unreported ALOX12B mutation p.Arg442Gln and another known mutation p.Arg432X, showed partially disturbed secretion of lamellar granule (LG) contents in the epidermis.
