Expression of Integrins in Junctional and Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
Recently, monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) have been raised against a family of adhesive membrane receptors (R) for extracellular matrix molecules known as integrins. In order to ascertain whether these adhesive proteins are normally expressed in inherited epidermolysis bullosa (EB) dermal epidermal junction, we studied the reactivity of MoAb recognizing ...

Reproductive alternatives for patients with dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa
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 ...

Increased Genetic Instability in Exfoliated Oral Cells in Patients With Epidermolysis Bullosa
ABSTRACT Objective To analyze the nuclear abnormalities of cytotoxicity—karyorrhexis (KR), karyolysis (KL), and pyknosis (PN)—and genotoxicity—micronucleus (MN) in exfoliated cells from different sites of the oral mucosa in patients with Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) and a control group.

Anaesthesia for children with junctional epidermolysis bullosa (letalis) [PDF]
The anaesthetic management of two children with junctional epidermolysis bullosa, formerly called the letalis form, is described. Anaesthesia for children with this disease has not been described previously. Special precautions were taken to avoid mucosal injury and some customary monitoring devices were omitted.
