Case report: Compound heterozygous mutations in the KDSR gene cause progressive keratodermia and thrombocytopenia

摘要

KDSR (3-ketodihydrosphingosine reductase) is a short-chain dehydrogenase located in the endoplasmic reticulum. Mutations in KDSR cause defects in ceramides, which play a key role in the biological processes of the skin and other tissues. Herein, we report a case of compound heterozygous mutations in KDSR that caused progressive keratodermia and thrombocytopenia in a 2-year-old male patient.
