Novel POFUT1 mutation associated with hidradenitis suppurativa-Dowling Degos Disease firm up a role for Notch signalling in the pathogenesis of this disorder: reply from authors

Abstract

We thank González-Villanueva et al. for their comments and commend them for their intriguing results. They report on a single patient with clinical and histopathological evidence for Dowling-Degos disease. In addition, the patient developed hidradenitis suppurativa. The patient was found to carry a mutation in POFUT1, a gene previously known to be associated with Dowling-Degos disease.
