Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is a severe, incurable, inherited blistering disease caused by COL7A1 mutations. Emerging evidence suggests hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) can be reprogrammed into skin; HPC-derived cells can restore COL7

An Incompletely Penetrant Col7a1 Mutation Causes Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa And Epidermolysis Bullosa Pruriginosa [PDF]
Epidermolysis bullosa pruriginosa (EBP) is a rare subtype of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) characterized by intense pruritus, nodular or lichenoid lesions, and violaceous linear scarring most prominent on the extensor extremities.

Ocular Gene Therapy in a Patient with Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa is a rare genetic disease caused by damaging variants in COL7A1 , which encodes type VII collagen. Blistering and scarring of the ocular surface develop, potentially leading to blindness.

Esophagitis and almost complete esophageal occlusion in a girl with epidermolysis bullosa
Epidermolysis bullosa is a genetically transmitted skin disorder that typically manifests with trauma-induced skin blistering, scarring and in some cases mucosal involvement. Esophageal webs, strictures or stenosis can be found in about a third of

Epidermolysis Bullosa Classification and Current Approach to Diagnosis
ABSTRACT Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a heterogeneous group of rare genodermatoses marked by skin fragility and bullae formation induced by minor trauma. Pathologic variants in at least 21 genes are associated with EB, grouped into four major subtypes based predominantly on the plane of cleavage within the skin.

ABSTRACT Epidermolysis bullosa simplex‐severe (EBS‐severe) caused by KRT5 p.Glu477Lys is a rare and particularly severe subtype associated with high neonatal morbidity and mortality. We report an infant who during the neonatal period required prolonged multidisciplinary intensive care for the management of several complications, including extensive ...
