Alteration in the Gene Encoding Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Nonreceptor Type 6 (PTPN6/SHP1) May Contribute to Neutrophilic Dermatoses

Abstract: We have found a B2 repeat insertion in the gene encoding protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor type 6 (PTPN6) in a mouse that developed a skin disorder with clinical and histopathological features resembling those seen in human neutrophilic dermatoses. Neutrophilic dermatoses are a group of complex heterogeneous autoinflammatory diseases that all demonstrate excessive neutrophil infiltration of the skin. Therefore, we tested the cDNA and genomic DNA sequences of PTPN6 from patients with Sweet's syndrome (SW… Show more

“…The neutrophilic dermatoses have been recently included in the group of autoinflammatory diseases, 52,53 which are clinically characterized by recurrent episodes of sterile inflammation in the affected organs, in absence of high titers of circulating autoantibodies, and autoreactive T cells. [53][54][55][56] These conditions are associated with a number of genetically determined alterations of the innate immune response inducing an overproduction of active IL-1b possibly leading, through the release of several proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, to a neutrophil-mediated inflammation.…”

“…The only major sequela of this dysregulated neutrophil function is the development of chronic skin inflammation, which is prevented by neutrophil-specific genetic blockade of integrin signaling. Alterations in the gene encoding the SHP-1 phosphatase ( PTPN6 ) have been reported in cases of human neutrophilic dermatoses [138]. Clearly, further work in this area is warranted.…”

“…These include neutrophilia, the formation of intraepidermal pustules and cutaneous tissue damage that is associated with marked infiltration of neutrophils. Interestingly, splice variants and coding mutations in Ptpn6 are closely associated with multiple neutrophilic dermatoses including Sweet syndrome and pyoderma gangrenosum in humans 21 . This association between mutations in Ptpn6 and clinic cases of neutrophilic dermatoses highlights the value of Ptpn6 mutant mice in the study of physiological autoinflammatory skin disorders.…”
