Defective transcription-coupled repair in Cockayne syndrome B mice is associated with skin cancer predisposition. [PDF]
A mouse model for the nucleotide excision repair disorder Cockayne syndrome (CS) was generated by mimicking a truncation in the CSB(ERCC6) gene of a CS-B patient.

Paediatric Hypotrichosis: A Clinical and Algorithmic Approach to Diagnosis
ABSTRACT Paediatric hypotrichosis is the clinical feature of paucity of hair arising congenitally or in early life with the presentation being that of the child whose hair is growing insufficiently. It is a hallmark finding of a diverse group of genodermatoses and sporadic disorders, presenting as either an isolated symptom or in association with ...

Photocarcinogenesis of the skin: Current status and future trends
Abstract Solar radiation is essential for life on Earth but is also a major contributor to skin carcinogenesis. Solar radiation, particularly ultraviolet (UV) B (280–320 nm) and UVA (320–400 nm), induces photocarcinogenesis via various pathways. UV light can directly cause DNA damage, resulting in genetic mutations if not repaired correctly.

The Ercc1−/Δ mouse model of XFE progeroid syndrome undergoes accelerated retinal degeneration
Spontaneous endogenous DNA damage drives key hallmarks of age‐related retinal degeneration, including visual impairment, photoreceptor cell loss, dysmorphic RPE, mitochondrial dysfunction, and cellular senescence. Therefore, Ercc1−/Δ mice represent a valuable model for further mechanistic studies on age‐related retinal degeneration and for rapid ...

This study reports a novel case of trichothiodystrophy (TTD) linked to compound heterozygous ERCC2 variants, presenting with progressive cerebral hypomyelination. The findings highlight a rare association between ERCC2 mutations and hypomyelinating leukodystrophy, expanding the current understanding of TTD‐related neurodevelopmental disorders. ABSTRACT

Mutations in CSA and CSB proteins cause Cockayne syndrome, a rare genetic neurodevelopment disorder. Alongside their demonstrated roles in DNA repair and transcription, these two proteins have recently been discovered to regulate cytokinesis, the final ...
