Previous studies have shown that the mean age of GPP onset is around 40 years, and onset at > 60 years of age is extremely rare. We report a case series of seven patients with elderly-onset GPP. The clinical features of the seven patients were assessed, and all seven patient were analysed for presence of the c.115+6T>C mutation in the gene encoding for interleukin-36 receptor antagonist (IL36RN). These patients had an atypical clinical course and a lower frequency of the IL36RN c.115+6T>C mutation. IL36RN mutations may have a significant, dose-dependent effect on the onset age of GPP. |
