Maintenance of chronicity signatures in fibroblasts isolated from recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa chronic wound dressings under culture conditions

Biol. Res; 56 (), 2023
BACKGROUND: Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (RDEB) is a rare inherited skin disease caused by variants in the COL7A1 gene, coding for type VII collagen (C7), an important component of anchoring fibrils in the basement membrane of the epidermis. RDEB patients suffer from skin fragility starting...

Inherited epidermolysis bullosa: update on the clinical and genetic aspects

An. bras. dermatol; 95 (5), 2020
Abstract Inherited epidermolysis bullosa is a group of genetic diseases characterized by skin fragility and blistering on the skin and mucous membranes in response to minimal trauma. Epidermolysis bullosa is clinically and genetically very heterogeneous, being classified into four main types according to...

Gestación gemelar en paciente con epidermolisis bullosa distrófica recesiva severa: revisión de la bibliografía en base a un caso clínico

La epidermolisis bullosa distrófica es un grupo de trastornos hereditarios de muy baja prevalencia que se caracterizan por una extrema fragilidad cutánea como consecuencia de una alteración de la cohesión de la unión epidermodérmica. Sin embargo, las manifestaciones clínicas van más allá de las ...

Carcinoma epidermoide metastásico asociado a epidermólisis ampollosa distrófica
Metastasic squamous cell carcinoma in dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa

Caso clínico: femenino de 18 años con diagnóstico de epidermolisis ampollosa distrófica (EAD) quién desarrolló una neoformación nodular sobre una úlcera crónica. Se diagnosticó carcinoma epidermoide (CE) invasor al que se realizó resección. Sin embargo, 5 meses después del tratamiento quirú...

Reproductive alternatives for patients with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa

Einstein (Säo Paulo); 17 (3), 2019
ABSTRACT Epidermolysis bullosa describes a group of skin conditions caused by mutations in genes encoding proteins related to dermal-epidermal adhesion. In the United States, 50 cases of epidermolysis bullosa per 1 million live births are estimated, 92% of which classified as simplex, 5% dystrophic, 1% j...

Pretibial dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa

An. bras. dermatol; 92 (5,supl.1), 2017
Abstract Epidermolysis bullosa is a group of mechano-bullous genetic disorders caused by mutations in the genes encoding structural proteins of the skin. Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene encoding collagen VII, the main constituent of anchoring fibrils. In this gr...

Epidermólise bolhosa distrófica: aspectos dermatológicos e cirúrgicos

Rev. AMRIGS; 58 (1), 2014
A epidermólise bolhosa é uma doença hereditária que causa alterações em proteínas estruturais da pele e consequente fragilidade da epiderme. Manifesta-se por surgimento de flictenas por todo o corpo e deformidades funcionais de membros, especialmente nas mãos, sendo que as formas mais caracterís...
