“…According to the current classification of inherited EB, the nails-only phenotype is considered a very rare autosomal dominant DEB variant probably overlooked because of negligible clinical implications [1,15,16,17,18]. Indeed, patients with this condition have been frequently disclosed as heterozygous carriers for a dominant mutation in pedigrees where other members with overt skin blistering resulted from compound heterozygous dominant and recessive glycine substitution mutations [19,20].…”

“…4). Furthermore, recent reports have shown presence of some glycine substitutions G1595R, G1776A, G1815R, G2251E, and G2287R can cause dominantly inherited nail dystrophy [6,7,19,20].…”

“…We found no significant nucleotide change except several polymorphisms that did not lead to the substitution of any amino acids. COL7A1 mutations are the cause of rare instances of familial nail dystrophy without any history of blistering as the main clinical feature [6,7,19,20]. It is generally thought that, if a dominant COL7A1 glycine substitution mutation is not at a critical sequence, a minimal phenotypical severity, such as nail dystrophy, may arise in the DEB patient [19].…”

“…By contrast, the mutation p.G1815R (rs121912841) was previously detected in DEB patients with toenail dystrophy (Sato-Matsumura et al, 2002). Similarly, all of the affected individuals in the 3-generation family with DEB-Pr showed typical manifestations of DEB-Pr and toenail dystrophy.…”
