Pellagra‐like condition is xeroderma pigmentosum/Cockayne syndrome complex and niacin confers clinical benefit

Abstract: An extremely rare pellagra-like condition has been described, which was partially responsive to niacin and associated with a multisystem involvement. The condition was proposed to represent a novel autosomal recessive entity but the underlying mutation remained unknown for almost three decades. The objective of this study was to identify the causal mutation in the pellagra-like condition and investigate the mechanism by which niacin confers clinical benefit. Autozygosity mapping and exome sequencing were used … Show more

“…This finding also suggests that viability may be predicated on the presence and partial functionality of XPG. Two other studies also found that the most severe cases of XP-CS in their cohort resulted from severely truncated XPG proteins that were suspected to be nonfunctional [24, 63], compared with a milder case in a compound heterozygous patient with one partially functional copy of the XPG gene. Again, these findings suggest that partial functionality in at least one allele may result in a milder phenotype.…”
