Netherton syndrome (NS, OMIM #256500) is a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by a triad of congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (CIE) or ichthyosis linearis circumflexa (ILC), trichorrhexis invaginata (TI), and atopic predisposition. The disease is caused by a mutation in the SPINK5 gene (serine protease inhibitor of Kazal type 5) encoding LEKTI (lymphoepithelial Kazal type-related inhibitor). We performed whole-exome sequencing on one Chinese NS family and made genotype-phenotype correlation analysis on the patients clinically diagnosed with NS or congenital ichthyosis erythroderma. We identified a novel frameshift mutation c.2474_2475del (p.Glu825Glyfs*2) in the SPINK5 gene. The N-terminal mutations of LEKTI cause a severer phenotype, while the C-terminal mutations of LEKT1 are related to a milder phenotype. Our findings suggest that Netherton syndrome may be underestimated clinically, and our findings further expand the reservoir of SPINK5 mutations in Netherton syndrome.
