Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a multisystem disorder characterized by ectopic mineralization of connective tissues with primary manifestations in the skin, eyes, and cardiovascular system. The classic forms of PXE are caused by mutations in the ABCC6 gene encoding the ABCC6 protein expressed primarily in the liver. Cutis laxa (CL) manifests with loose and sagging skin with loss of recoil. In 2009 we investigated a 19-year-old patient with overlapping cutaneous features of PXE and CL, together with alpha thalassemia. Genetic analysis failed to identify pathogenic mutations in ABCC6. More recently we developed a gene-targeted panel of next-generation sequencing technology. This panel has 29 genes, 22 of them, including ABCC6 and GGCX, being associated with ectopic mineralization phenotypes. Mutation analysis identified two heterozygous GGCX mutations, c.200_201delTT in exon 2 and c.763G>A, p.V255M in exon 7. The GGCX gene encodes a γ-glutamyl carboxylase necessary for activation of blood coagulation factors in the liver. The p.V255M mutation was previously reported to result in reduced γ-glutamyl carboxylase activity in vitro while the c.200_201delTT mutation is novel. Previous studies reported that mutations in GGCX cause PXE/CL skin phenotypes in association with or without multiple vitamin K-dependent coagulation factor deficiency. Our patient had loose redundant skin, moderate to severe angioid streaks, characteristic calcification of elastic structures in mid-dermis, consistent with PXE/CL overlap, but no coagulation abnormalities. Our studies expand the GGCX mutation landscape in patients with PXE-like phenotypes.
