Multiple Familial Trichoepithelioma Caused by Mutations in the Cylindromatosis Tumor Suppressor Gene

Abstract: The recessive oncogene cylindromatosis (CYLD) mapping on 16q12-q13 is generally implicated in familial cylindromatosis, whereas a gene region for multiple familial trichoepithelioma has been assigned to 9p21. Markers from both chromosome intervals were subjected to linkage analysis in a large family with multiple hereditary trichoepithelioma (TE) from Algeria. Linkage to 9p21 was excluded, whereas CYLD remained as a candidate. Mutation analysis identified a single bp germ-line deletion expected to result in tr… Show more

“…Mutations of the CYLD gene have been reported among patients with Irish, Japanese, Spanish, German, Algerian, Turkish, Hungarian, Slovakian, Italian, Scandinavian, Taiwanese, Turkish, Canadian and African backgrounds [Bowen et al, 2005;Kacerovska et al, 2013;Saggar et al, 2008;Nagy et al, 2013;Nagy et al, 2012;Nasti et al, 2009;Salhi et al, 2004;Huang et al, 2009;Amaro et al, 2010]. However, the majority of the published mutations are reported for patients from the UK, USA and China [Bignell et al, 2000;Lv et al, 2008;Ying et al, 2012;Liang et al, 2008;Zheng et al, 2004;Chen et al, 2011;Wang et al, 2010;Zuo et al, 2007].…”

“…Nevertheless, some CYLD patients harbor trichoepitheliomas intermingled with cylindromas (Poblete-Gutie´rrez et al, 2002). Thus, whether there was a genetic relationship between the two diseases remained unclear; however, it is now known that some MFT patients also have mutations in CYLD (Salhi et al, 2004;Zhang et al, 2004;Zheng et al, 2004) (Figure 2), suggesting that cylindromatosis and MFT are two distinct manifestations of the same genetic defect. This discovery supports the view that precursor cells of the folliculo-sebaceous hair unit are indeed the cell types that become transformed upon CYLD dysfunction.…”
