Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the prevalence of ophthalmic findings in patients with Darier disease, an autosomal dominant genetic skin disorder, in an effort to evaluate the need for eye examinations in the management of the disease. DESIGN Prospective observational case series. METHODS Thirty-six individuals with Darier disease were evaluated by both ocular assessment questionnaire and a comprehensive ophthalmic examination (visual acuity, refraction, external examination, and slit-lamp examination) with emphasis on the eyelids, conjunctiva, and cornea. In addition, questionnaire-based medical interview and skin examination were conducted. RESULTS According to the medical questionnaire, 39% of patients reported eye problems, 36% dry eye, and 42% eye fatigue after prolonged reading. Ocular examination revealed Darier disease lesions on the eyelids in 55% of the patients, blepharitis in 44%, conjunctival hyperemia in 28%, and short tear film break-up time in 83%. There was no significant relationship between any of these ophthalmic findings and systemic retinoid therapy, sex, or age. CONCLUSIONS The high prevalence of blepharitis and dry eye highlights the importance of ophthalmologic evaluation of patients with Darier disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Knowledge about the clinical features of Darier disease, an orphan autosomal-dominant genetic disorder, is sparse and has been evaluated only in few studies. OBJECTIVES To investigate the clinical features of a large group of patients with Darier disease, and to explore for associations between disease characteristics and severity of the disease. METHODS Seventy-six individuals with Darier disease were evaluated utilizing a structured questionnaire-based interview, a physical examination, and a retrospective assessment of their medical records. RESULTS The most frequent locations of lesions were hands (99%) and fingernails (93%). Wart-like lesions on the hands were more visible after soaking them in water for 5 minutes, we therefore named this phenomenon the "wet hand sign". Oral involvement was found in 43% of patients, while 48% of women and 16% of men showed genital lesions. Patients with severe Darier disease had a tenfold greater risk of developing genital lesions than those with mild disease (P = .01). Most patients (88%) in our study exhibited a combination of the four types of the disease patterns of distribution (flexural, seborrheic, nevoid, and acral). CONCLUSIONS Documentation of disease on the hands and fingernails provides a highly sensitive means to aid in the diagnosis of Darier disease. It is important to evaluate mucosal lesions including genital and oral mucosa.

Abstract
Background Darier disease (DD) is a rare autosomal dominant condition characterized by skin lesions. Additionally, a wide range of neuropsychiatric symptoms is frequently reported in DD patients. This genodermatosis relies on mutations in the ATPase sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ transporting 2 (ATP2A2) gene, which encodes an ATPase responsible for pumping Ca2+ from the cytosol to the lumen of the ER. Objective Herein we studied the molecular aspect of a two-generation Portuguese family with DD history with clinical variability. Methods All exons and intron-exon borders of genomic ATP2A2, as well as coding ATP2A2, were sequenced. Relative levels of SERCA2 mRNA and protein were quantified by qPCR and western blotting, respectively. Results The c.1287+1G > T variant was identified in all affected individuals, whereas the unaffected individual was shown to carry the wild-type ATP2A2 sequence in both alleles. This variant leads to the skipping of full exon 10, which consequently generates a frameshift originating a premature STOP codon in exon 11 (p.V395 = fs*19). Although the mutant mRNA seems to partially escape degradation, results suggest synthesis inhibition or immediate degradation of the mutant protein. Neuropsychiatric and other occurrences affecting certain patients are also reported. Conclusion This is the first study of DD in Portugal, the variant identified, previously described in a single Japanese patient, may be considered a pathogenic mutation, and haploinsufficiency the mechanism underlying DD pathology in these patients. This study also highlights the co-occurrence of neuropsychiatric features in DD.

Abstract
Darier disease (DD) is an autosomal dominant skin disorder caused by mutations in ATP2A2 encoding the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase Isoform 2 (SERCA2). Evidence of a population-level association between DD and psychiatric disorders suggests that mutations in ATP2A2 may have pleiotropic effects on the brain as well as skin. Evidence of genotype-phenotype relationships between ATP2A2 mutations and neuropsychiatric phenotypes would further support this suggestion. We investigated genotype-phenotype correlations between lifetime neuropsychiatric features and ATP2A2 mutation type (dichotomized into likely gene disrupting [LGD] or protein altering) in 75 unrelated individuals with DD. We also looked for evidence of clustering of mutations within SERCA2 according to neuropsychiatric features. Combining our data with the existing literature, the rate of LGD mutations was found to be significantly higher among DD cases/families with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or affective psychosis (p = .011). We also found a significant relationship between mutations located in the S4-M4 region of the protein and the presence of a severe neuropsychiatric phenotype (p = .032). Our findings add support to the hypothesis that Darier-causing mutations in ATP2A2 confer susceptibility to neuropsychiatric dysfunction, in particular severe psychiatric illness. This, together with evidence from research on common polymorphisms confirms ATP2A2 as a gene at which variation influences susceptibility to major psychiatric illness.

Abstract
The two disorders of cornification associated with mutations in genes coding for intracellular calcium pumps are Darier disease (DD) and Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD). DD is caused by mutations in the ATP2A2 gene, whereas the ATP2C1 gene is associated with HHD. Both are inherited as autosomal-dominant traits. DD is mainly defined by warty papules in seborrheic and flexural areas, whereas the major symptoms of HHD are vesicles and erosions in flexural skin. Both phenotypes are highly variable. In 12%-40% of DD patients and 12%-55% of HHD patients, no mutations in ATP2A2 or ATP2C1 are found. We provide a comprehensive review of clinical variability in DD and HHD and a review of all reported mutations in ATP2A2 and ATP2C1. Having the entire spectrum of ATP2A2 and ATP2C1 variants allows us to address the question of a genotype-phenotype correlation, which has not been settled unequivocally in DD and HHD. We created a database for all mutations in ATP2A2 and ATP2C1 using the Leiden Open Variation Database (LOVD v3.0), for variants reported in the literature and future inclusions. This data may be of use as a reference tool in further research on treatment of DD and HHD.
